Gwangju City Accepts Ruling on Third Private Sector Bid for Eodeungsan Tourism Complex
Gwangju District Court Cancels City’s Decision to Revoke Selection of Preferred Negotiation Partner Against Plaintiff
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Gwangju Metropolitan City decided on the 29th to respect and accept the first trial court's ruling related to the third public offering for private business operators in the Eodeungsan Tourist Complex Development Project.
Earlier, on the 10th, the Gwangju District Court ruled ▲to cancel the cancellation of the designation of the preferred negotiator made by the Mayor of Gwangju Metropolitan City to the plaintiff on December 23, 2019 ▲and to dismiss the plaintiff's claim against the Gwangju Urban Corporation.
The court stated that Gwangju City canceled the selection of the preferred negotiator in a manner inconsistent with the procedures and forms of the Administrative Procedures Act, and accordingly, if the administrative disposition is canceled, the qualification as the preferred negotiator is maintained, so the timing for the return or confiscation of the promissory note (4.8 billion KRW) for the project implementation plan has not arrived, leading to the dismissal of the claim.
While respecting the court's ruling, Gwangju City plans to negotiate strongly with Seojin Construction Co., Ltd. with a grand perspective to create a premium tourist complex unique to Gwangju and revitalize the local economy, reflecting the expectations and wishes of its citizens.
