Yeongam County Office

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jun-kyung] Yeongam County announced on the 12th that it has additionally secured 1.5 billion KRW in special disaster, safety, and regional issue grants to promote major pending projects.

The additionally secured "1.5 billion KRW special grant for the second half of 2022" will be used as project funds for two projects: the rural road widening and paving construction between Deokjin Fire Aviation Unit and Dongbaekjeong, focusing on disaster and safety, and the maintenance work of the old stormwater drainage system in Samho Jungangchonji.

The rural road widening and paving construction between Deokjin Fire Aviation Unit and Dongbaekjeong is expected to eliminate traffic accident risk factors caused by narrow road widths in advance, thereby securing safe passage rights for local residents.

The maintenance work on the stormwater drainage system at Samho Jungang Elementary School aims to improve flood damage caused by heavy rainfall in the urban planning road section of Samho-eup.

County Governor Woo Seung-hee stated, "With the advent of the COVID-19 endemic era and the continued instability of global politics and economy, it is difficult to secure budgets for regional development projects due to government fiscal tightening and reduced expenditures," adding, "We will focus administrative efforts on securing national and provincial funds through tailored strategies for securing finances for major pending projects."
