[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hong Jae-hee] The Iksan City Council in Jeonbuk is actively conducting legislative activities by holding the 228th extraordinary session and carrying out the ‘First Half of the Year Settlement and Second Half Plan Work Report’ by standing committees.

According to the city council on the 22nd, members of the Industry and Construction Committee shared the projects to be promoted this year through work reports from the executive departments and proposed alternatives for city administration development.

First, Kang Kyung-sook, Chairperson of the Industry and Construction Committee, urged, “Since the existing urban planning road projects are delayed due to reasons such as compensation and new projects continue to arise, I hope efforts will be made to complete the ongoing projects promptly through selection and concentration.”

Next, Councilor Lee Soon-joo emphasized, “Recently, there have been accident cases due to the sale and use of substandard petroleum products in other regions, so pre-inspections of gas stations in our area should be strengthened and regular inspections conducted through inspection agencies.”

Councilor Choi Jong-o said, “Many citizens use Mohyeon Library and the gymnasium, so from the perspective of providing convenient administrative services to citizens, I hope the installation of unmanned civil service issuance machines at the library or gymnasium will be actively considered.”

Councilor Cho Nam-seok requested, “I hope environmental impact assessments and landscape reviews for parks pursuing private special projects will be conducted thoroughly and meticulously, and since the shortage of residential areas may be one of the causes of population decline, efforts should be made to ensure smooth housing supply through private special projects.”

Also, Councilor Oh Im-seon said, “The family picnic performance held in the first half of the year was good as it complied with social distancing rules and allowed enjoyment of various programs, and I hope various cultural events tailored to changes in COVID-19, such as operating a visiting cinema, will be held in the second half.”

Councilor Han Sang-wook urged, “Regarding the post-management of Hamra Jangjeom Village, the opinions of village residents should be reflected as much as possible in the site utilization plan service, and the newly built resident welfare center should be promoted so that surrounding villages outside Jangjeom Village can also benefit.”

Councilor Han Dong-yeon stated, “The entrance road to Iksan General Industrial Complex is an important road connecting the industrial complex and Yeonmu IC, so I hope the construction period, including bridge construction, will be shortened as much as possible for temporary opening, and that the best efforts will be made to secure national funding.”

Lastly, Councilor Lim Hyung-taek requested, “The Dairo-um system, an Iksan Love Gift Certificate, has high citizen response and is effective, but I hope consideration will be given so that benefits are not concentrated on specific groups but distributed evenly, and measures will be prepared so that elderly people can also benefit.”
