Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk, has secured 1.4 billion KRW in special adjustment grants from Jeollabuk-do for the first half of this year to build the Seongsu-myeon Administrative Welfare Center and to maintain small-scale agricultural infrastructure.

According to the county on the 6th, the special adjustment grant is a subsidy distributed by the province to cover specific financial needs such as regional development and disaster recovery in cities and counties.

The county secured 1 billion KRW in special adjustment grants for the construction of the Seongsu-myeon Administrative Welfare Center.

The Seongsu-myeon Administrative Welfare Center complex project involves integrating the township office and welfare center, which have deteriorated in function after 30 years since construction, into a single building.

With the securing of this special adjustment grant, the Seongsu-myeon Administrative Welfare Center complex project is expected to proceed smoothly.

The newly constructed Administrative Welfare Center will not only house the township office and senior citizens' center but also add functions such as a residents' lounge, multipurpose auditorium, and residents' meeting room, establishing itself as a community hub space equipped with administrative, cultural, and welfare functions.

In addition to the 1 billion KRW for the Seongsu-myeon Administrative Welfare Center construction project, the county secured 400 million KRW in special adjustment grants for the continuous maintenance of small-scale agricultural infrastructure such as aging farm roads and drainage channels.

Furthermore, due to the global rise in prices causing a significant increase in various project costs, efforts have been made to secure the insufficient project funds, including directly meeting Governor Kim Kwan-young to explain the necessity of the projects, striving in every possible way to ensure the smooth progress of county pending projects.

County Governor Shim Min said, “By securing this special adjustment grant, we have gained the momentum to accelerate various county projects. We will continue to work closely with Jeonbuk Province to make every effort to ensure that local pending projects proceed smoothly.”
