The degree fraud scandal involving former Mayor Maki Takubo of Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture, has not only led to a criminal investigation but also imposed an estimated cost of tens of millions to over 100 million yen on local taxpayers for public finances. This includes expenses related to holding a new mayoral election and associated political processes. Additionally, the scandal has prompted the Ito City Council to convene multiple committees for investigations, causing delays in municipal budget reviews. As a result, supplementary budgets directly related to the public’s welfare, such as repair funds for the waste incineration plant and fixed tax rebate subsidies, could not be passed on time, impacting the welfare of residents.
