The institution's president, Verònica Cantó, has announced that the AVL's plenary session, held at the end of May, did not accept any of the allegations made by the council. The decision has already been sent to the General Directorate of Local Administration of the Generalitat, the body responsible for processing the file. The academy's initial report, made public in March, already concluded that there were no arguments to justify the change in spelling and defended that València was the “traditional”, “unique”, and linguistically appropriate form of the city's toponym.

In response to the initial report, the municipal government of the PP and Vox approved a set of allegations questioning the criteria used by the AVL and defending the proposal based on a study prepared by academic Abelard Saragossà. However, the AVL fully maintains its position.

The organization recalls that the toponym derives from the Latin Valentia and that etymological, historical, documentary, and normative criteria support the spelling València, with an open accent. It also highlights that this is the form consolidated in Valencian orthographic tradition since the Normes de Castelló of 1932 and the one included in the main current normative works.

According to the academy, the municipal allegations do not provide “any significant novelty” nor a sufficiently solid body of arguments to justify a modification of this magnitude. Therefore, it reaffirms the conclusions of previous reports and considers it unjustified to abandon the current official form. The AVL also points out that, given that the city of València is located in a territory of Valencian linguistic predominance, the official designation should consist of a single form in this language.

However, it adds that if the Generalitat ultimately decides to approve a bilingual designation against its criteria, the appropriate formula would be València / Valencia.
