Jangseong-gun to Build 'Bukim-myeon Administrative Welfare Center' with 3.2 Billion KRW Investment

[Jangseong=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Jo Hangyu] Jangseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Yoo Doo-seok) announced on the 23rd that it will actively promote the construction of the ‘Bukim-myeon Administrative Welfare Center,’ one of the pledges of the 7th local government administration.

The existing Bukim-myeon Administrative Welfare Center was built in 1976, making it 45 years old. The interior was worn out and cramped, causing great inconvenience to local residents visiting the center, and the convenience facilities for civil petitioners were severely lacking.

Accordingly, the county included the construction of the Bukim-myeon Administrative Welfare Center as a major pledge with the launch of the 7th local government administration.

The aim was to provide Bukim-myeon residents with high-quality administrative services and a comfortable activity space.

Since then, necessary procedures such as feasibility studies, basic plan establishment, preliminary review of the public architecture project plan by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, design competitions, and detailed design services have been sequentially carried out.

Last year, efforts were made to communicate with local residents by holding explanatory meetings for the promotion committee and village heads three times.

Once the current contract review stage is completed, a construction company will be selected through an open bid, and construction is scheduled to begin next month.

The project budget is a total of 3.2 billion KRW, and the new building will be approximately 1.5 times larger than the existing center building (672.31㎡), with a total floor area of 991.87㎡, securing ample space for various administrative tasks and civil petitioner services.

It is also expected to greatly enhance user convenience by including a community hall supporting various resident activities and an elevator for civil petitioners with mobility difficulties.

The construction is planned to be completed by next year.

Governor Yoo Doo-seok said, “By promoting the construction project of the Bukim-myeon Administrative Welfare Center, we will dramatically resolve the inconvenience experienced by local residents and provide high-quality administrative services,” adding, “We expect it to become a cultural and welfare space representing Bukim-myeon.”
