As Yangsan City passes the halfway point of Mayor Na's second year in office and focuses on revitalizing the local economy, he requested budget support for local pending projects and urged interest and cooperation for key initiatives to ensure these major projects proceed without setbacks.


Mayor Na has continued his hands-on approach to city administration by personally visiting government ministries and the National Assembly several times last year, achieving tangible results, and is continuing these efforts this year.


Mayor Na first visited the Ministry of the Interior and Safety to request special grant tax support totaling 13.9 billion KRW for 11 projects, including 2.5 billion KRW for the Woongsang Central Park development project, 2.5 billion KRW for the Jeungsan Middle School facility complex project, and 2 billion KRW for the Hometown Spring project. He also requested an increase in the standard labor cost to address the ongoing issues of insufficient public servant staffing and labor costs, which he has been raising since the beginning of his term.


He then visited the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to explain the need for housing support linked to the utilization of idle land at Pusan National University Yangsan Campus and proposed lifting the development restriction zone for the Jeungsan District urban development project.


Additionally, to improve the landscape around Yeongdae Bridge on the Yangsan Stream?making it a safe and attractive destination for citizens and transforming the city's nighttime image into a tourist attraction?he benchmarked the nighttime landscape operations of Banpo Bridge, Sebitseom, and Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul and discussed ways to introduce similar features in Yangsan.


Mayor Na Dongyeon said, "With the ongoing economic downturn and declining tax revenue, our budget situation is not favorable, making government support an essential driving force for promoting necessary projects. I am actively seeking anything that can benefit Yangsan City, and despite the difficult circumstances, I will continue to persuade central ministries and the National Assembly to secure national funding and resolve key issues."
