| 1 | 1 day | About garbage collection | Currently, combustible garbage is collected twice a week, but since plastic garbage is overwhelmingly larger, I would like to see plastic garbage collected twice a week. Burnable garbage should be collected once a week. | The city has been working on separate collection of plastic waste since April 2020 as part of its efforts to help solve global environmental issues such as global warming. The amount of plastic waste collected in April was 56.1 tons due to the effect of raising awareness of sorting among citizens. Additionally, the amount of combustible and non-combustible garbage collected in April was reduced by 14.3% compared to April of last year. Regarding increasing the collection of plastics, we need to consider the amount and cost of collecting plastic garbage, combustible garbage, and non-combustible garbage in the future, as well as the progress of urban infrastructure development in the city, including the eastern part of Nanzan, which is currently underway. Therefore, we believe that it is necessary to comprehensively consider the optimal garbage collection route. |

| 2 | 12th | Regarding the installation of crosswalks | At the intersection of Yanoguchi Nambusen Dori and Yokodori, there are some crosswalks, making it extremely dangerous to cross. Also, the sidewalk is only on one side, and in order to cross the old Kawasaki Kaido, you have to check all the cars coming from all directions and from the old Kawasaki Kaido before crossing, so I think if there was a crosswalk, the cars would stop. I am thinking. Please consider patrols and traffic safety initiatives so that everyone can live with peace of mind. | As requested, the city has installed post cones at intersections and sidewalks to reduce vehicle speed and ensure pedestrian safety. The installation and operation of crosswalks is handled by the Metropolitan Police Department, which is the traffic manager, so the city will also request the Tama Central Police Station to further improve safety measures. |

| 3 | 12th | About traffic lights in front of City Hall No. 1 parking lot | There is a traffic light for pedestrians, but I would like it to be a push-button type not only at night but also during the day. When entering the city hall parking lot, even if you want to avoid getting stuck behind you, you may be blocked by a red light that no one crosses. | Traffic lights are managed by the Metropolitan Police Department, which is the traffic manager. The city will request the Tama Chuo Police Station, which has jurisdiction over Inagi City, regarding the proposed system improvements. | Management Division Traffic Countermeasures Section |
| 4 | The 22nd | About the citizen ordinance to keep Inagi city clean | Please include not only dog and cat feces but also urine in Inagi City's civic ordinance to keep the city clean. In addition to enacting ordinances, I would like to request firm announcements and implementation of penalties. There is a possibility that more people will own pets in the future, and I think owners will need to fully understand the rules in order to coexist with them. |
In FY2000, the city established the ``Inagi City Citizen Ordinance'' to keep the city clean, requiring dog owners to carry feces disposal tools with them when taking them for a walk or exercise, and to clean up the feces excreted by their dogs. If there is a particularly malicious act, guidance, recommendations, orders, public announcements, and penalties (such as fines) will be applied. The information provided will be used as a reference for future operations. In addition, the Tokyo metropolitan government's manual on how to keep a dog states that it is necessary to take precautions such as leaving the house after defecating and washing the dog with water if it urinates outside. We will strive to educate everyone about manners. We will continue to disseminate the ordinance while providing appropriate guidance, and to encourage each dog owner to dispose of excrement responsibly, we will post on the city website and public relations, and set up educational materials to improve the morale of dog owners. We will continue our efforts to raise awareness. |

| 5 | 28th day | About the cavity under the Namsan Stairs | The stairs have not yet been opened to traffic, but due to the heavy rains, there are holes in the surface of the vacant land next to them, and the area under the stairs is hollow. During heavy rains in September last year, a large amount of muddy water was gushing out from the retaining wall of these stairs. Was there a landslide under the stairs? I'm worried about what happened and how to fill in the blanks and deal with it. Also, is a similar phenomenon occurring on Mt. Namsan, just invisible under the concrete? |
The Nanzan Eastern Land Readjustment Association is carrying out the entire land preparation work in the Nanzan Eastern District, and the association is conducting an investigation and restoration work in response to the effects of the heavy rains of Typhoon No. 2. First, regarding the cavity under the stairs, it is thought that the water that had collected around the stairs entered from the side of the stairs, passed under the stairs, and at the same time washed away the soil under the stairs. Since the stairs are supported as a whole, the stairs themselves will not collapse, but the hollow space under the stairs is filled with fluidized improved soil and the soil under the stairs is filled by filling the small gaps. We carried out hardening restoration work. Next, regarding the adjacent slope, it is thought that the collapse did not occur due to water collecting inside, but rather that the soil on the surface was washed away by a large amount of water flowing down due to heavy rain. We plan to restore the slope with improved soil mixed with cement. Additionally, since the slope has only recently been constructed, as time passes and plants grow, roots will grow on the slope and it will become more stable. In addition, as a common measure, in order to prevent a large amount of water from flowing down the stairs or down the slope in the event of heavy rain in the future, ditches were created to direct drainage toward the road rather than toward the slope. Next, regarding the case where a large amount of water was discharged from the drainage hole of the retaining wall, retaining walls are normally structured to withstand the earth pressure applied to the back side of the retaining wall, but groundwater and rain If the water pressure of the water that has seeped into the wall is applied to the retaining wall along with the earth pressure, the retaining wall may shift or fall. For this reason, we will install a drainage hole to drain the water so that water pressure is not applied. (Act on Regulation of Building Land Development, etc.: Requires one drainage hole per 3 square meters) This time, there is no need to worry, as the water that seeped in due to heavy rain was drained out through the drain hole, and it is functioning normally. |

| 6 | 28th day | About Nanzan Town Development | There are not enough supermarkets, shops, parks, etc. There are no parks, so children play on the road. I want Namsan to become like Koyodai, with lots of greenery, parks, and shops. | In the Nanzan Eastern Land Readjustment Project, there are plans to develop seven parks within the district, but the association is currently behind in the development of the parks. For this reason, the city is concerned about the lack of places where children can play in the district, and with the cooperation of landowners, will temporarily develop a "Minna no Hiroba" so that children can play as soon as possible. In February, Okuhata Yato Park on the west side of Yaoko was tentatively opened. Next, the opening of commercial facilities such as supermarkets will largely depend on the intentions of businesses and landowners, and the association's plans to sell reserved land. We have established a land use plan that will allow for the opening of commercial facilities, etc., in order to create a lively atmosphere. As you mentioned, we will continue to work together with the city to create a better living environment, with reference to bustling town development that takes advantage of the hilly terrain, such as the Koyodai area and other Tama New Town areas. We will strive to |

28th day | About Nanzan Police Box | I would like a police box to be built in Namsan. | In our city, where there is no police station within the city, we believe that it is necessary to provide a police box that is closely connected to the community in order to create a safe and secure city. Therefore, every year, when the mayor directly visits the Tama Central Police Chief, he submits a written request to the police station, which is responsible for establishing the police box, for the establishment of a police box in front of Inagi Station. We will continue to request that a police box be installed in front of Inagi Station, as the population and traffic volume are expected to continue to increase due to the Nanzan East Land Readjustment Project. In addition, the city, with the cooperation of various local organizations such as crime prevention associations and neighborhood associations, conducts city-wide crime prevention patrols and patrols using blue revolving light crime prevention patrol cars. |

| 8 | 28th day | About Namsan's patrol bus | I want a tour bus. | In order to improve the convenience of bus public transportation within the city and to discuss matters necessary to realize transportation services tailored to local circumstances, the city has appointed representatives from each neighborhood association and citizen's group, We have established the Inagi City Regional Public Transportation Council, which is comprised of bus operators, police, and others. Regarding bus public transportation in the Nanzan Eastern District, this meeting requested bus operators to operate route buses in conjunction with the opening of the urban planning road in the Nanzan Eastern District, which is currently under construction. , I would like to ask you to wait a little while longer. |

| 9 | 28th day | Measures to prevent bicycle accidents | A bicycle is speeding downhill. Pedestrians may not notice a bicycle coming from behind and almost hit them. Therefore, I wonder if it would be possible to establish an ordinance requiring bicycles to be equipped with something that makes a sound (such as a bell) when using them. | As a general rule, bicycles must be ridden on roadways, but in exceptional cases bicycles are allowed to be ridden on sidewalks. Pedestrians have priority on sidewalks under the Road Traffic Act, so the city installs warning signs and post cones on sidewalks to reduce the speed and speed of bicycles riding side by side, and demarcates sections of roadways where bicycles should ride. We are striving to secure space for bicycles by installing bicycle navigation marks to show directions. In addition, we will disseminate the rules and etiquette for bicycle use through street activities in cooperation with the Tama Chuo Police Station and the Tama Inagi Traffic Safety Association, the city newsletter, the city website, and the city's official video channel. We are working to prevent dangerous bicycle driving by taking various measures and publicizing awareness to ensure that bicycles ride in the correct manner, such as requesting enforcement of bicycles that ride dangerously. In the future, we will continue to carry out public relations and enlightenment to further raise awareness and strive to ensure the safety of pedestrians. Please note that pedestrians are given priority on sidewalks, and ringing a bell unnecessarily is a violation of the rules, so we are not considering enacting the proposed ordinance. |

| 1 | 28th day | About the aging of Inagi Daini Junior High School | At Inagi Daini Junior High School, there are rain leaks in the gymnasium, etc., and the classroom floors are uneven, making the desks unbalanced, making it an environment that is not conducive to concentrating on learning. In addition, there is a lot of draft, and the toilet smells and is unsanitary. Please install air conditioning equipment in special classrooms. This year, the exterior walls will be repainted, but along with this work, I would like to see renovation work done inside the school building as well. |
Renovation work for schools and school interiors requires a large amount of money, so we take into consideration the degree of deterioration of each school. For fiscal year 2020, we are planning to carry out exterior wall renovations and rooftop waterproofing work at Inagi Daini Junior High School, and also plan to install air conditioning in special classrooms at elementary and junior high schools in the city (currently in the process of preparing a supplementary budget). . In addition, we are taking measures to repair rain leaks where the cause can be identified. In order to improve the school environment, we carry out maintenance such as making appropriate repairs and special cleaning of the toilets. |

| 1 | 12th | About subsidies for purchasing bicycle helmets | It seems that some wards and cities in Tokyo are providing their own subsidies, so Inagi City should also consider doing so. | Wearing a bicycle helmet has a traffic safety effect such as reducing injuries in bicycle accidents, and the Road Traffic Act was revised on April 1, 2020, making it mandatory for all ages to make efforts to wear bicycle helmets. We believe that the city needs to work together with police agencies to promote this. Regarding the bicycle helmet purchase subsidy project, we would like to comprehensively consider the details of the subsidy system from Tokyo to municipalities and the implementation status of each city. |

| 2 | The 13th | About the chime that prompts children to come home in the evening | In the evening, the chime urging the children to go home changed from ``Yuyake Koyake'' to a song they had never heard before. When I asked my elementary school grandson about it, he said it was the ``Inagi City Song.'' I think it's best to use nursery rhymes that are familiar and easy to sing. Also, the performance is poor, especially the last high note, which is jarring. It's not the kind of sound that children would listen to every day. Since this is the music you play every day, you should also ask for the opinion of a professional music teacher. |
The evening disaster prevention radio broadcast has long been a chime using the melody of the Westminster bell in England, but there was an opinion that it should be changed to a common sound, and the reason was that it would be easier to imagine returning home. ``Yuyake Koyake'' was broadcast on . To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the city's incorporation, we are currently soliciting "Inagi City Songs," and from among the many applications, the Inagi City Song Formulation Committee, which includes music experts, will select a song from November 2021. It was established on the 1st of the month. The Inagi City City Song Development Committee has proposed that it should be used as music for disaster prevention radio broadcasts, and the city wants many citizens to become attached to the Inagi City Song. The melody has been changed and broadcast since March 1, 2015. We would like to continue to take advantage of various opportunities to perform, so we appreciate your understanding and support for "Inagi City Song." The sound source is not a performance, but an electronic musical instrument that resembles the sound of a music box. |

| 3 | The 13th | About the melody played in the evening | It feels strange to play the city's song at twilight, as it seems like Inagi City is going into the twilight. If you want to spread the city song, I think it would be better to play it at noon instead of in the evening. | Disaster prevention administrative radio is installed as a means of communication to citizens in case of emergency. For this reason, it is necessary to maintain normal conditions at all times, so we check operation by broadcasting a melody instead of a siren at a set time every day. | General Affairs Contract Division General Affairs Section |
| 4 | The 20th | About EV subsidies | Why does Inagi City not provide subsidies for CEV vehicles, EV vehicles, home installations, and corporate installations? Even though the national, Tokyo, 23 ward, and municipal levels are providing subsidies, why isn't Inagi City? Inagi, who has 2.3 cars per household, should be the one to tackle EVs. | In February 2020, the city declared its aim to achieve carbon neutrality in 2050 by actively promoting decarbonization measures in the public and consumer sectors. In order to promote decarbonization in the civil sector, Inagi City is implementing subsidies for the introduction of carbon neutral housing equipment, etc. Although there is no subsidy for EV vehicles, there are We are providing subsidies for fuel cell vehicles (FCVs), which have the highest environmental performance compared to EVs, and for V2H (vehicle-to-home systems), which allow EVs to be charged and discharged at home. . For more information, please check the June 15, 2020 issue on the Inagiya City website. |

| 5 | The 22nd | About the workplace environment that makes it easy for fiscal year appointed employees to work in the long term | We would like to receive long-term support from the fiscal year-appointed employees who are indebted to us on a daily basis, so we request that workplace improvements be made to make it easier for them to work in the long term. Also, if you know of any opportunities to submit such opinions to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, please let me know. |
In light of the increasingly complex and diverse administrative demands of recent years, the city strives to appropriately allocate full-time staff and fiscal year appointed staff according to the quality and quantity of work. In particular, for jobs that require specialization, in order to help citizens who need support, so that they can fully demonstrate their specialized knowledge in a position that is not affected by regular transfers (Type 1) Fiscal year We have appointed staff, and we would like them to be engaged in the work for a long period of time. For this reason, although the city cannot refuse a person's request to leave, the city provides a work environment where all employees, including those appointed for the fiscal year, can continue to work with pride, a sense of responsibility, and a sense of purpose in life. We are working hard to create it. Additionally, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government has set up a ``Tokyo Resident Voice Comprehensive Desk'' to listen to the voices of Tokyo residents. We hope that you will use this site when submitting your opinions to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. On the other hand, I would like to point out that the Tokyo Metropolitan Government does not have authority over the hiring of employees of other local governments, such as Inagi City. |
