[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] Changwon City in Gyeongnam announced on the 8th that it has secured 2.8 billion KRW in national funds through the selection of the restricted development zone resident support project for next year.

According to the city, there is currently a 248㎢ restricted development zone with a total of 559 households residing. The city plans to invest a total project cost of 4.2 billion KRW next year to promote resident support projects within the restricted development zone.

The restricted development zone resident support project is a project to improve infrastructure such as roads, parking lots, parks, and rivers to enhance the living environment of residents who have experienced inconveniences due to the designation of the restricted development zone.

The resident support projects implemented by the city are carried out in three categories: living infrastructure such as farm roads and drainage ditches, environmental culture such as Nuri-gil trails and landscapes, and living parks such as urban parks within the restricted development zone.

The living infrastructure projects include 23 cases such as the drainage ditch maintenance construction in Yonggang-ri, Dong-eup, totaling 2.2 billion KRW; environmental culture projects include the Cheongnyangsan Marine Observatory Plaza creation project with 1 billion KRW; and living park projects include the Changwon Mannal Park Love Forest creation project with 1 billion KRW, totaling 25 projects planned.

Lee Jeong-geun, Director of the Environment and Urban Bureau, said, “This will help improve the deteriorated living environment and welfare of residents in the restricted development zone who have experienced inconveniences for decades for public purposes.”
