Haenam-gun Promotes Customized Public Contest Projects for 14 Eup and Myeon Areas

8 Localized and Community-Oriented Projects Received

Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do, received a total of 8 applications for the “2024 Customized Local Public Contest Project,” a self-initiated contest project targeting 14 eup and myeon (towns and townships).

According to the county on the 1st, the Customized Local Public Contest Project is a program where local residents freely discover and apply for projects tailored to the characteristics of their region. It was first implemented last year to strengthen the contest project response capabilities of eup and myeon staff with little experience in public contests and to promote life-centered projects that residents can directly feel. It has been carried out for three consecutive years including this year.

The total project cost is 300 million KRW, with differential support up to a maximum of 100 million KRW per location, and the projects will be fully implemented starting next year. On the 2nd, five locations will be selected through the first expert evaluation, and then the Haenam-gun Resident Participation Budget Committee will make the final selection of three locations in the second presentation evaluation.

A county official said, “Since this is the third year of the project, various projects have been submitted,” and added, “We hope that this year’s projects will also be selected to directly benefit local residents.”
