Gangbuk-gu, Seoul (Mayor Lee Soon-hee) will expand the operation of the 'Maintenance Project Academy,' which has been held to support the smooth promotion of housing maintenance projects, starting from February this year.

The 'Maintenance Project Academy' is a program that educates on overall matters related to maintenance projects such as redevelopment and reconstruction. The district held the academy five times in June and September last year.

As the demand from residents for maintenance projects such as Moa Town and Rapid Integrated Planning continues to increase, the district has decided to expand the Maintenance Project Academy to be held monthly from February to November this year.

The Maintenance Project Academy held on February 2 at the Gangbuk-gu Office auditorium will focus on station area projects such as Station Area Revitalization Project, Long-term Lease Housing near Stations, and Youth Safety Housing. From March, the academy will cover topics including ▲preparation stages of maintenance projects ▲formation and operation methods of associations ▲calculation methods for project costs and estimated contributions ▲appraisal of maintenance projects, preparation and approval of management disposition plans.

Additionally, in March and September, advanced courses will be offered covering association bylaws drafting, maintenance project case law, and project management precautions. In April and September, education on maintenance projects will also be provided for Gangbuk-gu public officials.

The 'Maintenance Project Academy' is open to all Gangbuk-gu residents, maintenance project associations, promoters, and anyone interested in maintenance projects. Those wishing to participate can make reservations online through the Gangbuk-gu website or apply by phone to the district’s Redevelopment and Reconstruction Support Team. The registration period for the February 2 academy is until Wednesday, January 31.

Furthermore, following last year, the district is operating the 'Redevelopment and Reconstruction On-site Consultation Center' every second and fourth Tuesday of the month from 2 PM to 4 PM at 13 community centers across the district.

This month, the consultation center will be held at Beon 2-dong Community Center on the 9th and at Suyu 1-dong Community Center on the 23rd. Starting February 13, it will tour Beon 3-dong, Suyu 2-dong, Songcheon-dong community centers, beginning with Songjung-dong Community Center.

The main consultation topics include guidance on the promotion of redevelopment, reconstruction, small-scale housing maintenance projects, and public projects (such as Rapid Integrated Planning and Moa Town). Last year, the district operated 17 consultation sessions, handling 25 cases related to project progress, 18 cases on project procedures and methods, and 4 cases of conflict and dispute mediation, totaling 47 consultations.

Lee Soon-hee, Mayor of Gangbuk-gu, stated, “The Seoul Metropolitan Government is expected to finalize the regulatory relaxation plan for the Bukhansan altitude district in the first half of this year, which is increasing residents’ demand for maintenance projects. Given the strong aspirations of our residents, the district will actively support these projects to improve the residential environment as quickly as possible.”
