Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yoo Seong-hoon) announced that the proposed change to the Moa Town management plan for the area around 864, Siheung 1-dong was approved at the Seoul Small-scale Housing Maintenance Integrated Deliberation Subcommittee held on the 23rd.

The area around 864, Siheung 1-dong was one of the two pre-designated sites last November to accelerate the Moa Town project, where individual projects such as street housing maintenance projects are actively underway within the management area.

The main contents of the finally approved management plan include ▲upgrading of land use zones ▲maintenance and expansion of maintenance infrastructure (roads, parking lots) ▲designation of a special architectural zone to introduce creative designs for Moa housing ▲maintenance guidelines for areas excluded from project-possible zones and project promotion zones.

The two project-possible zones and two project promotion zones (areas where associations have been established) will have their land use zones upgraded from Type 2 and Type 2 General Residential Areas (up to 7 floors) to Type 3 General Residential Areas, allowing associations to be established and Moa housing projects to be implemented with a floor area ratio of around 300% without floor restrictions.

In connection with the housing maintenance-type redevelopment project (rapid integrated planning) plan for the adjacent area around 871, Siheung 1-dong, Siheung-daero 84na-gil and Doksan-ro 45-gil will have their road widths expanded from the existing 6m to 12m, planning a northern road connecting Siheung-daero and Doksan-ro.

In the A-3 zone (Project Promotion Zone 1) located at the entrance of Hyundai Market, a public parking lot will be installed to improve convenience for market users and resolve illegal parking issues. Near Siheung-daero 68-gil adjacent to Hyundai Market, a local community street will be designated to allow placement of neighborhood living facilities to address the shortage of living service facilities in the area.

The district expects that once all five Moa housing projects within the Moa Town area of 864, Siheung 1-dong are completed, housing supply of 1,578 units will be possible.

Meanwhile, the district is designating five Moa Town management areas within the region and promoting projects to improve the residential environment of aging low-rise residential areas and enhance the quality of life for nearby residents.

The areas around 1005, Siheung 3-dong (98,664㎡), 817, Siheung 4-dong (30,431㎡), and 922, Siheung 5-dong (89,944㎡), selected as lead projects by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in April 2021, have completed the establishment and announcement of Moa Town management plans.

For the areas pre-designated in November 2023 to accelerate Moa Town promotion ? 864, Siheung 1-dong (80,429㎡) and 950, Siheung 3-dong (99,715㎡) ? the area around 950, Siheung 3-dong passed the review on June 24, and the area around 864, Siheung 1-dong passed the recent review, with Moa Town management plan approval and announcement forthcoming.

Yoo Seong-hoon, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, said, “Through the approval of this Moa Town review, the Moa Town in the area around 864, Siheung 1-dong is expected to be revitalized, contributing to the creation of a pleasant residential environment and regional development through efficient and planned maintenance of the area.” He added, “Going forward, we will devote all efforts not only to the Moa Town project but also to housing development projects to provide residents with a good residential environment for the maintenance of low-rise residential areas.”
