Gwangju Buk-gu, Call for Proposals for Aging Small and Medium Apartment Facility Improvement Project

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (District Mayor Moon In) announced on the 25th that it will conduct a public contest for the 2021 renovation project of aging small- and medium-sized apartment facilities to create a pleasant residential environment in multi-family housing.

The eligible applicants are multi-family housing units with a private area of 85㎡ or less that have passed the usage inspection and are over 20 years old (excluding rental and employee apartments) that participated in the preliminary demand survey, and 80% of the project cost per complex, up to a maximum of 32 million KRW, will be supported.

The support includes facility maintenance such as rooftop waterproofing, building exterior crack repairs, painting work, parking lot and complex road paving, sidewalk block maintenance, as well as urgent maintenance such as retaining wall repairs, replacement of wastewater and sewage pipelines, replacement of security lights and CCTV.

The target complexes will be finalized between 16 and 18 sites in May based on selection criteria including the aging status of facilities, complex size, and the possibility of self-payment.

In particular, considering that this is a support project for aging small-scale apartments, complexes that are over 30 years old or have 300 or fewer households, where resident safety and living environment improvement are urgent, will be given priority.

Moon In, Mayor of Buk-gu, said, “We expect that this project will improve the residential satisfaction of residents living in aging apartments,” and added, “We will continue to promote various support projects to enhance residents’ residential welfare.”
