On the 30th, the Green Mothers' Association visited the mayor's office at Geoje City Hall in person to present the plaque of appreciation to Mayor Byeon.

Since last year, the city has been implementing projects to improve children's protection zones, including the construction of sidewalks on school routes, installation of speed cameras and traffic signals, with a budget of over 5.3 billion won including national subsidies, and continues to promote improvement projects this year as well.
