Q&A summary
| Contents of question | Answer |
|---|---|
| [About the Yato River Flood] (1) When it rains heavily around Sakahama 33, the nearby Yato River overflows and floods. Rainwater seeps into the premises. (2) In the summer of 2016, when an evacuation advisory was issued due to heavy rain, it was already flooded and it was not possible to evacuate. How should we respond? |
(1) Although it is difficult to take immediate measures, the policy is to proceed with rainwater drainage measures in the future. The city is aiming to maintain a high level of drainage, but it is taking a long time and has been delayed. Inagi City has installed separate pipes for sewage and rainwater, and the sewage treatment system for sewage has almost been completed, but rainwater countermeasures have not yet begun (to a certain extent, it has already been done by discharging water into municipal water). The plan is to plan rainwater sewage treatment and drainage in the ``5th Long-Term Comprehensive Plan (tentative name),'' which is scheduled to begin in 2021. We would like to consider measures to prevent large-scale disasters from occurring. (2) The city's policy is to issue early evacuation advisories in the event of foreseeable disaster damage. Unlike earthquakes that occur suddenly, flood damage caused by heavy rain can be predicted to some extent in advance. Vertical evacuation (evacuation to the second floor of a building) is effective when moving to an evacuation center is difficult due to torrential rain, etc. Please remain calm, evacuate to the upper floor, and contact the fire department. However, since it is difficult for the government to handle everything, we would like to ask for self-help efforts, such as modifying the function of the gate at home. |
| [About drainage on Kamiyato Street (near Wakabadai 1-1)] (1) I always clean the area by myself, but the drainage on Kamiyato Street is poor due to dead leaves and garbage, and it is clogged. When I previously consulted the management department, they cleaned it for me, but I would like them to make fundamental improvements. (2) There is a person in my neighborhood who is growing a vegetable garden, and they are building a dam to collect rainwater. Even during heavy rains, the dam remains open, resulting in flooding. I would like the city to be careful. |
The Management Department will conduct an on-site inspection. |
| [About Koshoji Street] (1) Since there are many elderly people in the area, I would like the i-bus to run. (2) Children often pass through the road to school, but many vehicles, including large vehicles, are traveling at high speed, causing accidents. I would like you to consider measures such as restricting the speed to 30 km/h. |
(1) I can understand the request, but it is difficult to deal with the city's current financial situation. Since the i-Bus is not operating on a profitable basis, it will be in the red just by running it (100 million yen deficit per year). It should be noted that the current iBus route is not fixed in the future, but will be reviewed in the future based on changes in road traffic conditions in the city accompanying the progress of urban development. We would like to take this as a request and consider it when revising the route in the future. (2) Traffic regulations are under the jurisdiction of the police, and the city makes requests to the police every year. |
| I want more mailboxes. | The postal business used to be a government business, but with the privatization of the business, profitability came to be prioritized. Although there are requests in each region, it will be difficult to realize it in the situation where the number of mail handled is decreasing due to the spread of e-mail. |
