The on-site inspection was carried out to accurately assess the situation following protests by local residents on the 23rd opposing the planned construction of the Comprehensive Companion Animal Support Center in the Panmun-dong area, as well as disagreements between Jinju City and the City Council during the Economic and Welfare Committee’s administrative report on the 24th.
The committee members visiting the site compared and analyzed concerns raised by residents, such as noise and water pollution in the protected water supply area, alongside Jinju City’s points about accessibility and regional economic revitalization. They frequently exchanged opinions among themselves while conducting the inspection.
After the inspection, Committee Chairperson Yoon Seong-gwan stated, “The establishment of a companion dog support center is absolutely necessary. However, based on previous cases, if the project proceeds ignoring residents’ opposition, there has never been a case where the project was smoothly carried out. A review of the project is needed to achieve the best outcome that satisfies all residents.”
