The ordinance requires that a post-management plan be established before the completion of the project to prevent the completed urban regeneration areas from declining again. To facilitate smooth post-management, it allows for the promotion of projects such as supporting the formation and revitalization of local communities, creating jobs utilizing local resources, strengthening residents' capabilities, and maintaining, operating, and managing urban regeneration infrastructure.


It also mandates that the performance of each completed urban regeneration area be inspected annually according to the post-management plan, and that the inspection results be reflected in the post-management plan for the following year.


Additionally, the ordinance stipulates the operation of a monitoring and evaluation team for post-management and requires monitoring and evaluation to be conducted for three years from the date of establishment of the post-management plan.



Council member Jeong Hoe-gi stated, “In urban regeneration projects, management is as important as development,” and added, “To reduce overlapping support for projects and steadily spread the effects of the projects, it is essential to check the activities in the completed areas and ensure the independence of resident organizations.”
