Abstract

This paper reports the process of making Master Plan in Yokohama City. It's pointed out that, in a large city like Yokohama, it's difficult to make City Master Plan in participation with many residents.

This paper is a study of the process of making District Master Plan (Kohoku Ward Master Plan) in Yokohama, and it concludes that by cooperating with city planning section in municipal office, ward office can make District Master Plan in participation with many residents.
