Regarding the cleared area behind the Hyakumura Community Disaster Prevention Center <br id="3"/>The cleared area behind the Community Disaster Prevention Center has the benefit of brightening up the area and preventing crime. However, after a year, the bamboo will grow longer and some amateurs will come in to pick up bamboo shoots, making the situation extremely dangerous. How does the city plan to manage it in the future? |
The mountain in the area you pointed out is densely forested, and we have been taking crime prevention measures for some time. Since we changed the streetlights to LED, the situation has improved and become brighter. The area in question is currently entrusted to the Green Wellness Foundation, which is carrying out pruning and other work. We will take your comments into consideration. Additionally, with the cooperation of landowners, some land has been donated to the city. In the future, we would like to maintain and preserve Inagi's precious greenery, including this land. |
Regarding landslides <br id="3"/> The disaster prevention map also indicates that all nine districts in the Hyakumura area are at risk of landslides. Seeing the landslides in Hiroshima, I feel a sense of crisis. |
The latest disaster prevention map will be completed soon and distributed to all households. A map of steep slopes will also be published, and it is certain that there are many areas in the Hyakumura district that fall under this category. |
Regarding the widening construction of Tsurukawa Kaido <br id="3"/>Currently, the road has been widened up to Jin'oh Bridge, but the road up to Sakahama remains the same as the old road. The road plan was supposed to be a straight road. I have heard that there is a sewage pipe running through the area, and that Inagi City will cover the cost of the project, but I would like to know if there is anything we know about the current situation. |
In the past, there were plans for land readjustment in the Hyakumura area. The target Tsurukawa Kaido is a metropolitan road managed by the Tokyo metropolitan government, and the metropolitan government will be in charge of widening the road, but Inagi City is also planning to deal with the area, and the city will also plan road maintenance using the metropolitan budget. The city was supposed to do this. Unfortunately, however, an agreement could not be reached with the landowners and the project was canceled or abolished. |
Regarding securing fire brigade members <br id="3"/>There are many areas where the number of fire brigade members is less than the capacity. Although the members are volunteers, they are also involved in disaster prevention activities and regional development. Shouldn't Inagi City create something unique for its members that would be beneficial to the group members? |
Securing fire department members and improving equipment are not yesterday's or today's issues, but have been something we have been working on for 10 or 20 years. It is difficult to increase the number of members just by increasing direct benefits and subsidies. So far, we have subsidized the activities of the fire brigade, provided family comfort parties for members, and encouraged members to obtain qualifications, but we would like to continue to provide a variety of benefits to our members. |
Regarding cancer screening: <br id="3"/>The city is promoting stomach cancer screening as a policy, but as people get older, the number of various health checkups increases. I would like the city to implement various cancer screenings, rather than focusing only on stomach cancer. |
This time, we are preparing materials for this year's policy development, so only gastric cancer screening is listed, but of course we carry out a variety of other screenings. |
Regarding the construction of intersections on the ridge trunk line <br id="3"/>The traffic lights near Tate Shrine have been updated, making it impossible for large trucks to enter.As residents, we are grateful, but there are currently trucks parked behind the co-op, making it dangerous.・It is an inconvenient situation. |
The current main ridgeline is a temporary service road, and a wide right-turn lane has been installed on the premise that the greenbelt section in the middle will not be used. I think the shape of the intersection will change if the main road itself is improved. We will continue to strongly request the Tokyo Metropolitan Government to improve main roads, and the city will also consider measures to prevent large trucks from entering community roads. |
