IAG APR 2021年4月 亞博匯 56 JAPAN Wharf redevelopment project, but the scheme is not that compelling. “As the issue of moving started back in 2014, those involved understand that the development will start sometime soon, regardless of an IR bid. I believe they are working out the timing that is most beneficial to their own company. Surely some want to stay put as long as they possibly can. However, that means the city has to revise the opening schedule for a potential IR. At the same time, the national government hasn’t specified a required opening schedule, so it’s hard to say either way.” This certainly is a dilemma for Yokohama. The spokesperson added, “An IR bid requires the consent of the local people, so we want the companies to fully understand and accept the redevelopment project before they move. [That’s why] we believe it is important to provide full explanations.” 公用，」中央及地方公共團體都可以通過既定程序強行收購土地。 這種程序可用於道路及水道的工程。可是，當局的發言人亦解釋： 「山下碼頭的再發展計劃是可以徵收土地的，但該計劃的迫切程 度並非那麼高。」 「由於搬遷的事宜早在2014年開始，那些涉事的人都明白， 該發展計劃無論有沒有競逐IR都快將開展。我認為他們都是在找 一個為自己公司最有利的時機。當然，有些希望留得越久越好。可 是，那就會令到橫濱市需要改動其未來可能興建的IR的開幕時間 表。同時，中央政府也未有制定一個必須遵照的開業時間表，因此 從兩方面而言都非常難說。」 這對於橫濱而言實在是一個難題。該發言人補充：「競逐IR需 要當地人的同意，因此我們希望那些公司在搬遷前都完全理解及 接受該重新發展的計劃。(所以)我們相信提供一個完整的解釋至 為重要。」
