Simmin, Imsil County Governor, Visits Site of Vulnerable Area Living Condition Improvement Project

[Imsil=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Shim Min, the governor of Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk, visited Imsil-eup and Osu-myeon, where the vulnerable area living condition improvement project is being promoted, to gather various opinions from residents.

According to the county on the 2nd, Governor Shim attended the on-site briefing session held on the 1st at Galma Village in Imsil-eup and Hanam Village in Osu-myeon, the target areas of the vulnerable area living condition improvement project, and exchanged various opinions about the project with the residents.

In particular, although Galma Village is a village near the eup administrative center, there was a consensus that the vulnerable area living condition improvement project was necessary due to the high proportion of old houses over 30 years old and slate roofs.

The project was selected in 2019, and preliminary administrative procedures were completed by the first half of this year. Before the full-scale construction begins this month, an on-site briefing session was held to help residents understand the project.

The main projects include the construction of a village hall, paving of alleys with asphalt concrete, drainage maintenance, slate removal, roof improvement, and fence maintenance. Hanam Village in Osu-myeon was selected in April and is currently in the basic planning stage.

Through this on-site briefing session, various opinions from residents will be reflected in the basic plan to establish a more practical and concrete project direction.

The vulnerable area living condition improvement project is led by the Presidential Committee on Balanced National Development and is a project to guarantee the basic living standards of residents in rural areas with at least 30 households, where the proportion of houses over 30 years old or slate houses is 40% or more.

This project is a life-oriented initiative that expands living, hygiene, and safety infrastructure such as slate removal, roof improvement, and house maintenance, improving the residential environment. It is highly evaluated as a project with very high satisfaction among residents who have implemented it so far.

Governor Shim Min said, “Galma and Hanam villages had poor living conditions and needed overall village maintenance, but thanks to the efforts of the residents, they were able to be selected as project sites. Since it was difficult to be selected, we will gather various opinions from village residents and proceed with the project in a well-organized manner.”
