Japanese to English translations [Non-PRO]
Other / 公共施設の看板

Japanese term or phrase: XX市

公共施設の看板に書く文章のことで教えてください。

来訪者への注意をうながす看板で、
「段差がありますので、足元には充分お気を付けください。XX市」
という文章なのですが、主にお聞きしたいのは、最後の「XX市」の部分はどのように書いたらいいのでしょうか。
たとえば、
Watch your steps carefully.XX city
とそのまま書くものでしょうか、またはなにかbyなど前置詞が必要でしょうか。

どうか教えていただけますようお願いいたします！

English translation:City of XX.

Explanation:
公共施設の看板としては通常看板の下のところに「XX City」を書くより、「City of XX」はよく見られます。ちなみに、「段差がありますので、足元には充分お気を付けください。」は「Watch your steps carefully.」よりも「Watch your Step」か「Tripping Hazard」は一般的です。

xx City (Public Facility) Local Authority

Explanation:
都市地方自治体の公共施設管轄下で規制される内容として、おそらく「xx City Public Facilities Authority」という風に表示されると思います。看板ですから、スペースを入れればbyとかの前置詞は無くてもいいと思います。
