Currently, the nature of city planning is undergoing reexamination. However, the ethics
of city planning has rarely been discussed. Accordingly, this paper focuses on the
Ethical Principles for Tsukuba Smart City. First, we examine and identify needs for
improvement in the Principles, and suggest the need for additional principles （Section
2）. Next, to establish ethical principles for city planners to follow, we consider city
planning by Echizen City in Fukui Prefecture and by Odakyu Electric Railway and Real
Estate（ Section 3） and identify the “principle of solidarity” as an ethical principle found
in Echizen City’s city planning （Section 4）and the “principle of encounter” as an
ethical principle in Odakyu’s city planning. We then propose ethical principles for city
planners to follow, including these additional principles（ Section 5）. Finally, we present
issues that could not be discussed in this paper（ Section 6）.
