• (Private 1) About proposal system such as making of basic design
• (Proceedings 2) Tsuzuki Ward   Town Center Area Barrier-Free Basic Concept

• In Yokohama City, there are more than 100 railway stations that are specific passenger facilities (more than 5,000 passengers), but it takes a lot of years to formulate everything based on the progress made so far. Shouldn't you review the development method centered on the ward office?

• Yokohama City intends to focus on specific passenger facilities for the time being as a criterion, but it is better to accept other items from the purpose of the proposal system.
• Because it is necessary to consult and support proposals, the role of the ward is important, and it is necessary to consider systems and methods that are easy to propose, such as creating guides for residents' proposals. .
• Basically, the purpose of the original proposal system is to make a solid plan and propose a lack of it. It is necessary to show the direction of the government.
• It is important what kind of publicity will be made to the proposer citizens.
• We want you to show council about proposal that was rejected in liaison meeting in agency. Also, please explain when publishing the reason why you decide not to create or change to the general public.

• It is good to get opinions from people who don't participate in town walks. There are many places in Yokohama where there is a difference in height, and it is important how to do such things.
• At the time of the development of Kohoku New Town, there is no concept of barrier-free, and we are paying attention to how much it can be changed this time. Specifically, I would like you to verify how much the height difference will occur.
• When developing Braille blocks, please consider the flow lines. It is better to maintain the large sidewalk in consideration of where people with disabilities and people without disabilities move. (Braille blocks are difficult to move in wheelchairs.)
