About change of Yokohama-shi scenery plan and Kannai-District cityscape consultation district (September 24, 2021)

With the enforcement of the Landscape Act in 2005, Yokohama City formulated the "Yokohama City Ordinance on Creation of Attractive Urban Landscapes" (hereinafter referred to as the "Landscape Ordinance") in 2006, and formulated a landscape plan in 2008. We have been promoting the maintenance of good urban landscapes through notifications based on the Landscape Act and the formation of attractive urban landscapes through discussions based on the Landscape Ordinance.
About 10 years have passed since the development of the landscape plan, etc., and the situation surrounding the cityscape has changed, such as the progress of technology related to outdoor advertising and the relocation of the city hall from the Kannai station area.
To respond to these changes, we will change the Yokohama City Landscape Plan and the Kannai-District City Landscape Consultation Area.
The following legal procedures were implemented.

"Yokohama City Landscape Plan" and "Kannai-District City Landscape Consultation Area" were changed as follows.
