12 Billion KRW Support for Apartment Maintenance and More in Nowon-gu

A Total of 1.19 Billion KRW Supported for Installation and Repair of Public Facilities and Community Revitalization... Applications Accepted by Visit Until February 26 for Apartment Complexes with 20 or More Households, Agreements to Be Made in March After Review

[Asia Economy Reporter Jong-il Park] Nowon-gu (District Mayor Oh Seung-rok) will implement the 2021 Apartment Support Project.

This project, costing a total of 1.19 billion KRW, is divided into common facility maintenance and community revitalization projects.

The facility maintenance project includes ▲convenience facilities such as playgrounds, exercise facilities, senior centers, and study rooms ▲safety facilities such as disaster safety facilities, parking lots, and security lights ▲ancillary facilities such as energy-saving, eco-friendly facilities, and parcel delivery facilities.

Support of up to 45 million KRW per complex is provided to install and repair these facilities to create a pleasant and safe apartment environment.

The revitalization support project includes ▲resident festivals such as sports competitions and singing contests ▲eco-friendly activities such as rooftop gardens and green markets ▲resident learning activities such as cultural lectures, gymnastics, and cooking classes ▲sharing activities such as book sharing, group purchasing, and communal childcare, aiming to encourage various local activities and restore the village community.

Up to 8 million KRW per complex is supported.

Last year, the apartment support project included a total of 69 cases such as elevator replacement, sewer repair and dredging, installation of facilities for the disabled, unmanned parcel delivery facilities, energy-saving facilities, and reinforcement of safety facilities.

Despite the restrictive environment due to COVID-19, a place for resident harmony was created where neighbors could feel affection through limited support such as zero-balcony concerts and making gochujang and rice cakes while complying with quarantine rules.

This year’s apartment support project applications can be submitted by the management entity visiting the Nowon-gu Office Apartment Support Division by February 26. After review by the support screening committee and business agreement, support is expected to be provided by the end of March.

Apartments wishing to apply must submit required documents such as the application form, resident representative meeting resolution, and project plan by the application deadline. Installation of facilities or purchase of goods unrelated to the support project is excluded, and false expenditures may result in recovery of support funds and administrative sanctions.

Nowon-gu is also helping to create a better living apartment environment by supporting the replacement of old pipes and installation of air conditioners in security offices separately from this year’s apartment support project.

Additionally, projects related to apartment online voting or non-smoking apartment certification are supported regardless of the application period, with the policy to resolve frequent resident conflicts occurring recently in apartments.

District Mayor Oh Seung-rok stated, “Apartments account for more than 80% of all housing in Nowon-gu,” and added, “I hope this apartment support will greatly help create pleasant and safe apartments and restore the spirit of the village community.”
