We visited Kohoku Ward to exchange opinions on "special cities" with the presidents of the Union Neighborhood Association who are active in the community.
We had various questions such as "it is better to increase the number of things that can be decided by the authority of the ward in a special city" "What do you do when you decide to do office work of the prefecture" and exchange meaningful opinions Was.
It was an exchange meeting in the area that started in August, but this time we visited all 18 wards. We thank the chairpersons of the Union Neighborhood Association of each ward again and, based on the opinions of local residents, will continue to work hard to realize the legalization of a "special city".
(For details, please see the new metropolis system "Special City (Special Self-Government City)" that Yokohama City aims for.)
