The county focused discussions on creating a wood-friendly city for sustainable regional growth, preserving the aquatic ecosystem (water circulation) of Hwangryong River, improving the fiber filtration facilities at Jangseong sewage treatment plant, and tourism revitalization projects such as making Sangmu Peace Park a tourist attraction, enhancing the landscape of Pyeongnim Dam Theme Park, and the Jangseong Live Relay Travel.

The ‘Kids Rail Baekyangsa Station Daycare Center Construction’ project, selected in a public contest last July, plans to establish a national and public daycare center near Baekyangsa Station with a budget of 3 billion KRW including county funds, and will be actively promoted starting next year. A cooperation agreement will be signed with the Honam Headquarters of the Korea National Railway Corporation on the 18th.

Preparations for the ‘2025 Jeonnam Provincial Sports Festival,’ successfully secured in May, are also being perfected.

The county is considering holding the ‘2025 Jeonnam Provincial Sports Festival Pre-Event,’ a practice competition, to enhance the completeness of the event's operation.

In the field of agricultural development, projects such as establishing a southern branch of the agricultural machinery rental business, supporting natural disaster prevention facilities and equipment for livestock farms, revitalizing the distribution of high-quality brand rice, fostering youth smart farming groups, and creating mechanized specialized complexes for rice and soybeans were identified.

Broad discussions were also held on policies supporting citizens' happy lives, including the establishment of a Senior Club (an organization dedicated to senior employment), a student advancement coaching project, and lowering curbs on pedestrian paths to ensure the safety of transportation-vulnerable groups.

The county plans to thoroughly review the feasibility and expected effects of the identified projects and reflect them in next year's budget allocation and major tasks according to priority.

County Governor Kim Han-jong said, “Considering the government's tight fiscal policy next year, multifaceted review is essential before implementing policies,” and added, “Please do your best for the future development of Jangseong.”
