Facing the era of a 1 trillion won initial budget, Sacheon City is making an all-out effort, including the formation of a special task force, to secure national and provincial funds for 2026.

On the 9th, Sacheon City in Gyeongnam held the '2026 National and Provincial Fund Securing Progress Report Meeting' in the city hall's main conference room and decided to strategically work on securing budgets for 40 major projects, including the establishment of a shared factory for aerospace startup companies.

This report meeting was organized to proactively and systematically respond to securing national and provincial funds for the smooth promotion of key projects such as current issues and campaign pledges.

Sacheon City's target amount for securing national and provincial funds in 2026 is 413.5 billion won, an increase of 48.1 billion won (13%) compared to the initial budget of 2025.

The city decided to form a special task force for securing national and provincial funds. The plan is to intensively visit Gyeongnam Province, central government departments, and others to explain the justification of major pending projects and actively request support.

Additionally, separate national and provincial fund securing teams by department, led by the heads of national and local offices, will be operated.

Not only will new projects aligned with the direction of city administration development be discovered, but also pre-administrative procedures for applying for national and provincial funds will be promptly carried out to ensure that major projects can be implemented in a timely manner.

In particular, the city plans to make full use of its human network, including public officials from central government departments originally from the area and other expatriates, and strengthen cooperation with local National Assembly members' offices to make every effort to secure national and provincial funds.

Mayor Park Dongsik urged, “Although competition among local governments for national and provincial funds is fierce, I hope that all administrative power will be concentrated and thorough efforts will be made to secure these funds for the opening of the 1 trillion won initial budget era and the creation of an aerospace complex city.”
