This organization was launched when the 3 towns (machi) were merged as Isumi City, and initiated with a “Study Session on Thinking About Isumi City” that was conducted by the youth of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Isumi City.
We subsequently promoted “community development” with our focus on Promotion of Relocation and Settlement in concert with public administration.
We will continue to work on the future development of a bright and prosperous community, one which our citizens shall be proud to be a part of, while properly engaging the natural environment of Isumi City.

Character “Makibeh”

In Isumi City, you will often find a house surrounded by the Chinese black pine tree. This beautiful hedging fence is called “Makibeh” and is considered a treasure of the region. We had created our “Makibeh” motif based on this black pine tree fence and adopted this motif in the hope of preserving the city’s beautiful landscape and harmony with nature. This concept shall be the base of our community development.
