• Although the “Guide to the Proposal System” has been properly prepared, many people do not think that it is possible to create a “draft of basic concept” in line with the purpose of the law. It is better to be able to propose things that do not.

• It is necessary to tell inhabitants of a ward and district committee members a little more carefully about the reasons for selecting the district that creates the basic concept and how to determine the priority. Or we want you to consider selecting after hearing opinion of inhabitant of a ward beforehand about district making basic design.

• A limited number of visually impaired people who can use the Internet or SP code. There are other tools to transmit information in addition to these, so when conducting information solicitation, we would like you to refer to the opinions of the parties concerned, such as the visually impaired groups in each ward.

• Why don't you develop a method that can unify and communicate important policies of Yokohama City, not just the visually impaired? I think it's time to consider it from the viewpoint of information assurance.

• As there is no clear maintenance standard about barrier-free of city parks, we must consider the system to be considered, incorporate the opinions of various people, and convey those opinions to the park manager properly, and proceed. In order to come up with various ideas, we would like you to continue to consider it in an organization like a liaison and incorporate citizen proposals.

• It is effective to use the elevator of the railway station building between areas divided by tracks, but it may not be available depending on the time of day, and it may be necessary to make a detour. We want you to think of station building as one passage connecting district and district instead of passage to use railroad.
