Joint Call for 'Public Participation Small-Scale Maintenance Projects' Starting from the 30th

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 29th that it will conduct a "Joint Public Participation Small-scale Housing Maintenance Project Contest" together with the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) starting from the 30th.

This project includes street housing maintenance projects, small-scale reconstruction projects, and small-scale redevelopment projects.

The small-scale housing maintenance project is a maintenance project that has simplified procedures since 2020, unlike large-scale redevelopment and reconstruction projects, allowing for rapid progress. Currently, a total of 76 LH-participated small-scale housing maintenance projects (approximately 13,000 households) are underway.

In this year's contest, to revitalize maintenance projects in provincial areas, the target sites will be expanded to urban areas nationwide, and priority review (with additional points) will be given to project sites densely populated with disaster-vulnerable houses such as semi-basements, to promptly promote the maintenance of residential areas in regions vulnerable to flood damage and other risks.

Additionally, along with small-scale maintenance projects, there are plans to actively encourage the designation of small-scale housing maintenance management areas so that infrastructure can be systematically established.

Residents who wish to apply for the contest can submit application forms, resident consent forms, and other contest documents by mail or email from the 30th until August 30th.

For the received districts, a comprehensive review of business conditions will be conducted, including resident consent rates, residents' willingness to participate, and business feasibility analysis results, to select joint implementation project districts.

Park Jae-soon, head of the Public Housing Promotion Division at the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, said, "Through this contest, we expect to contribute not only to housing supply in aging, low-rise residential areas within the city but also to the phased maintenance of disaster-vulnerable houses, and we ask for the residents' active interest."
