The submission deadline is until Thursday, May 14, 2026. PoliPoli Inc. (Location: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kazuma Ito) announces that "PoliPoli Gov" will be introduced for the collection of opinions regarding sewerage usage fees in Hino City, Tokyo. **Outline of the Call for Opinions** Theme: Your sewerage fees will change. "A town where people can live with peace of mind, for the next generation." We want to hear your voice. Collection Period: From Wednesday, April 15, 2026, to Thursday, May 14, 2026, 23:59. URL: https://polipoli-gov.com/issues/vPAFjxWh4qpmoVXI52fL **Background and Purpose of Hino City's Adoption of "PoliPoli Gov"** Hino City's sewerage fees have been kept unchanged for over 20 years since the revision in April 2004. During this time, despite management efforts such as reviewing staff numbers and reducing corporate bonds (debt), it has become difficult to maintain the current fee level. This is due to the increase in sewage disposal costs paid to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, rising material prices, labor costs, and interest rates, as well as the necessity of updating aging sewer facilities. Given these circumstances, Hino City is considering a revision of sewerage fees with an average increase of about 25% in April 2027. In this call for opinions, the city will present its thinking behind the revision and the proposed fee structure to hear the frank opinions of its citizens. The opinions received will be used in future considerations for the sewerage fee revision. **What is "PoliPoli Gov," the website to get your voice to the government?** It is a "policy co-creation platform" for residents and the administration to build society together. Anyone can easily deliver their ideas to the government online. It updates the activity of listening to the opinions and requests of citizens and residents (public listening) to a new system compatible with the digital age, contributing to the happy lives of each individual. **** 1. The government posts a consultation on a policy to PoliPoli Gov. 2. Residents can post their opinions and ideas, and "like" comments they agree with. 3. PoliPoli analyzes the comments, which the government uses as a reference for policymaking. **Future Outlook: Towards an Era of Co-creating Policies with Residents** To realize its mission of "contributing to the happy lives of people around the world by continuously creating new political and administrative systems," PoliPoli will continue to advocate for updating the policy-making process through its service provision. In Japan, the percentage of citizens who feel that "their own opinions are not reflected in society" is at a high level of over 70%. To solve this issue, a tool is needed that allows anyone to easily participate in system-building with the government. Through providing our service, we aim for a society where residents and the administration can co-create policy.
