In the second phase, ideas were solicited in 14 categories, including the common themes of "promotion of administrative DX" and "creation of exchange and related population" in 12 municipalities, and 8 projects were selected from among 20 applications! The selected projects will be tested in cooperation with the municipalities and the secretariat.

(Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture) 4.
Issue: Measures against vacant houses
Demonstration municipality: Sapporo City
Details of the experiment: While the problems caused by abandoned and vacant houses have become a regional issue, disposing of, renting, or selling the houses they own is an unfamiliar experience for many citizens, and we hear many comments that they do not know how to proceed with the disposal and management of their vacant houses. We will verify whether the introduction of the "Residence End-of-Life Navi" provided by Classone will contribute to decision making regarding the disposal and management of houses and the proper management of vacant houses.
