Gangseo-gu to Promote '2020 Apartment Support Project'... Focused Support on Improving Children's Playground Facilities and Repairing Disaster Risk Structures

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gangseo-gu, Seoul (Mayor Noh Hyun-song) is carrying out the ‘2020 Apartment Support Project’ to create a safe and pleasant residential environment in apartment complexes.

The Apartment Support Project provides partial funding necessary for the management of common facilities used by many residents within apartment complexes and for promoting community revitalization.

The support targets 287 apartment complexes with 20 or more households in the area, excluding complexes completed within the last 5 years and rental apartment complexes.

The support projects for apartments include the community revitalization sector (6 projects such as repairing children’s playgrounds open to nearby residents) and the management of common facilities sector (8 projects such as repairing main roads and security lights), with up to 15 million KRW supported within 50% of the total project cost per project.

In particular, priority support will be given to two projects: improving the environment of children’s playground facilities in apartment complexes and repairing and reinforcing disaster-risk facilities.

Apartments wishing to apply for support must submit the application form, project plan, site photos, and other documents by March 20th to the Housing Division of Gangseo-gu Office either by visiting in person or by mail (5th floor, Housing Division, Gangseo-gu Office, 302 Hwagok-ro, Gangseo-gu).

Detailed information and application forms can be found on the Gangseo-gu Office website (www.gangseo.seoul.kr) under Departments & Districts - Housing Division - Notices.

The support amount will be decided in April after comprehensive review of urgency and appropriateness based on document screening and on-site investigation through the Apartment Support Review Committee.

An official from the district said, “We hope for much interest and participation in this project to improve the residential environment of apartment complexes,” and added, “We will do our best to promote the project so that residents can live in a pleasant and safe residential environment.”

Last year, the district focused on expanding support for convenience facilities to improve the working conditions of apartment security guards and cleaners, receiving high praise from residents and workers.
