Jeongeup-si Operates Architectural Guidance Consultation Team for Building Permit Procedures and More

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jaegil] Jeongeup City in Jeonbuk announced on the 7th that it will operate an architectural civil complaint consultation office on the 1st floor of City Hall's General Civil Complaints Division for visitors seeking architectural civil complaint consultations during the first and second halves of the year.

The architectural civil complaint consultation office for the second half of this year will be held free of charge from today until the 18th.

The architectural civil complaint consultation office is an architectural administrative service established to enhance residents' trust in architectural administration and to help minimize time and economic costs.

Through consultations with 19 professional architects with extensive practical architectural experience, administrative procedures for the overall architectural process are guided.

The main contents include consultations on the overall architectural process from the design stage to use approval, the possibility of legalization of unauthorized buildings that violate administrative procedures, and the legalization procedures.

In particular, detailed consultations can be received from the design stage to completion, including explanations of related laws and construction methods, which is expected to be of great help to civil petitioners.

It is also expected to partially resolve inconveniences such as civil petitioners having to visit multiple departments to check application procedures and administrative distrust caused by misunderstandings during the consultation process.

A city official said, “Next year, we will also work to provide appropriate architectural services to civil petitioners in line with periods when many architectural civil complaints occur, in consultation with the architectural society.”
