Daejeon City, Inspection of Development Restriction Zone Management Status

[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Daejeon City is set to inspect the management status of the development-restricted areas within its jurisdiction.

The city announced on the 17th that from the 17th to the 30th of this month, it will conduct a joint inspection with district offices to prevent and crack down on illegal activities within the development-restricted zones.

The joint inspections are conducted once each in the first and second half of every year, with special inspection teams formed from the five autonomous districts.

The main inspection items include unauthorized or violation of permitted activities within the development-restricted areas such as ▲construction and change of use of buildings ▲installation of structures ▲landform alteration ▲land subdivision ▲stacking of goods ▲cutting of dead trees, and other development activities.

The city plans to issue guidance measures such as voluntary removal or restoration for minor farming-related violations detected during the joint inspections, while ordering corrective actions for illegal changes of building use or landform alterations carried out for profit or repeatedly.

If the corrective action orders are not complied with, the city may impose enforcement fines and take additional administrative actions such as prosecution.

The city will also review the progress of 16 resident support projects within the development-restricted areas during the joint inspections.

Jang Il-sun, Director of the Urban Housing Bureau of the city, said, “The nature within the development-restricted areas is a precious heritage that Daejeon citizens must protect together. We will prevent indiscriminate damage to nature caused by unauthorized permits and simultaneously monitor whether resident support projects within the development-restricted areas are proceeding smoothly.”
