View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Seon-gap) reviewed the achievements of the 'Resident Autonomy Committee' introduced for the first time last year and shared plans for 2021.
Since September last year, Gwangjin-gu has been preparing for the Seoul-type Resident Autonomy Committee and has been operating resident autonomy committees in five pilot neighborhoods?Junggok 4-dong, Guui 2-dong, Guui 3-dong, Jayang 4-dong, and Hwayang-dong?since January this year.
The Resident Autonomy Committee is a resident representative organization in the neighborhood community that supports and operates resident autonomy activities, develops agendas, and plans and executes practical resident autonomy through neighborhood-level citizen participation budgets and resident tax projects.
The five pilot neighborhood Resident Autonomy Committees designated the period from November 16 to December 9 as the '2020 Resident General Assembly' week. During the assembly period, they introduced and promoted the Resident Autonomy Committee to residents, collected opinions on autonomy plans, and recruited committee members.
The Resident General Assembly was originally supposed to operate as a public forum for residents to collect and decide on opinions regarding autonomy plans, but this year it is conducted in a post-reporting format due to COVID-19.
This time, a total of 37 projects, including 21 resident autonomy activity support projects and 16 neighborhood-level citizen participation budget projects, were approved as the 2021 autonomy plan, and budget applications have been submitted to the city.
The proposed resident autonomy activity support projects include ▲Village Cinema ▲Senior Beauty Healing and Art Therapy ▲Creating a Cultural Communication Village for Children and Adolescents ▲Hwayang Dullegi Project, among others.
The citizen participation budget projects include ▲Safe School Commute Campaign ▲Mural Painting and Reducing Single-use Plastic Bags ▲Resident Quarantine Team, among others.
