To stabilize local public utility charges, the district froze the prices of volume-based waste bags. In addition, the number of designated "Good Price" businesses increased by 50% compared to last year to a total of 75, and the district supported these businesses with water and sewage fees, volume-based waste bags, and designated badges.

The district also plans to contribute to local price stability by monitoring the prices and trends of essential goods during holidays and to respond swiftly in the event of consumer damages.
