Yokohama City is considering the development of a large-scale theme park, etc. using the vast land of the former US military facility in the western part of the city, and explained to the residents about the environmental impact of the development overnight. We held a meeting.

The US Army's “Kaseya Communication Facility,” which spans Seya Ward and Asahi Ward in Yokohama City, was returned five years ago in 2015, and the council made by the city and land owners are studying how to use the site. I will.

In March, the city planned to develop a vast area of ​​about 240 hectares, which is equivalent to the area of ​​about 50 Tokyo Domes, in four zones, such as an area specializing in agricultural promotion and a park that also serves as a disaster prevention base. I am putting it together.

Of these, we are aiming to attract complex customer attraction facilities centered around a large-scale theme park in the "tourism/busy zone", which has the largest area of ​​approximately 125 hectares.

From the night of the 1st, Yokohama City started a briefing session on the environmental impact on the surroundings. There were voices against the plan due to doubts.

Although the specific opening time and management body of the theme park have not been decided, Yokohama City plans to build roads and other constructions from the 4th year of Reiwa in the hope that it will be a tourist base visited by 15 million people a year as a whole. I plan to start.
