Gochang-gun Implements 'Multi-Child Household Water Bill Discount System' View original image


[Gochang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jaegil] Jeonbuk Gochang-gun announced on the 30th that it will continue to implement the ‘Multi-Child Household Water Bill Discount System’ this year to encourage childbirth.


The discount applies to households with three or more children under the age of 19 registered in the resident registration, providing a 20% reduction on the monthly water bill for household usage.


Additionally, for households whose water and sewage bills have suddenly increased due to leaks, half of the amount exceeding the average usage over the past three months will be discounted.


However, proof of leak repair must be submitted when applying for the discount.


Furthermore, no fees will be charged when requesting disconnection cancellation after water supply suspension due to unpaid water bills.


In particular, if it is difficult to pay the full amount at once due to excessive water usage or leaks resulting in high bills, an installment payment plan can be requested.


Applications for discounts and installment payments can be submitted by visiting the Gochang-gun Water and Sewage Business Office or through the person in charge at the Eup/Myeon office.


Kim Junnyeon, head of the Water and Sewage Business Office, said, “We hope that the Multi-Child Household Water Bill Discount System and the water bill installment payment system will help alleviate the economic burden on water users even a little. We will continue to do our best to provide clean and stable tap water supply and customized friendly services.”
