Jungnang-gu Holds Residents' General Assembly in All 16 Neighborhoods

From the 8th to August 26th, Resident General Assemblies Held Across All 16 Neighborhoods

Residents Directly Participate from Project Discovery to Execution to Promote Local Development

Starting from the 8th, Jungnang-gu (Mayor Ryu Kyung-gi) will hold resident general assemblies across all 16 neighborhood resident autonomy committees.

The resident autonomy committee is a representative grassroots self-governance organization where residents themselves discover necessary projects for their village and participate in the execution process, realizing grassroots autonomy. The resident general assembly is the highest decision-making meeting of the resident autonomy committee, where activities are shared and residents’ opinions are gathered to decide the autonomy plan projects for the following year.

The resident general assemblies will be held throughout all 16 neighborhoods of Jungnang-gu, starting with Sinnae 1-dong on July 8 and ending with Myeonmok 4-dong on August 26. Any resident living or spending time in the respective neighborhoods can participate, and detailed schedules and participation methods can be found on each neighborhood community center’s website.

Since the beginning of the year, the resident autonomy committees have held continuous meetings and discussions to discover and deliberate on public and effective daily life agendas. The autonomy plan execution projects formed through this process will be disclosed at the resident general assemblies, where residents exchange opinions and finalize the projects for 2024.

Ryu Kyung-gi, Mayor of Jungnang-gu, said, “This year is the first year that resident general assemblies are held in all neighborhoods. We ask for the participation of many residents so that necessary projects for a better local future can be well promoted,” and added, “We will continue to do our best to create a better Jungnang-gu with a Jungnang-style autonomous culture together with the resident autonomy committees.”

The district has been transitioning resident autonomy committees from resident autonomy councils since 2019 to support more active and practical resident autonomy activities and to revitalize grassroots autonomy. Earlier this year, new members were appointed in Sangbong 2-dong, Junghwa 2-dong, Muk 2-dong, Mangwoo 3-dong, and Sinnae 2-dong, completing the formation of resident autonomy committees in all 16 neighborhoods.
