Following the recent announcement of the business plan for the Wakayama IR, the briefing session for residents, which had been postponed since November last year, will be resumed from the 28th of this month. The information session will be held 14 times in a week from the 28th to March 6th, including online participation. There will also be two public hearings in March. The briefing is to explain the IR business plan, and the public hearing is intended to reflect the opinions of the residents directly in the plan. In addition, if the number of applications exceeds the capacity, priority will be given to those who live in the prefecture.

Until March 10, Wakayama Prefecture is conducting a public comment pub-comment to solicit opinions from a wide range of citizens. In the future, after reflecting public comments and public hearings in the plan, we plan to apply to the national government by April 28 after approval by the Wakayama City Assembly and the Prefectural Assembly.
