Sendai was able to announce the project, but there
was not the dispatch for the later citizen. As aremedy, we perform the dispatch for the citizen as
well as Sendai-shi and should create much
ActiveCitizen. Ⅲ.We invited the administrative

that is earlier than an average year and should
invite more people concerned with administrationand media.
