Gangnam-gu, Seoul (District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong) will hold the first maintenance project academy of the year on the 5th of next month from 2 to 4 PM at the District Community Center Auditorium, targeting about 300 residents.

The district operates the maintenance project academy annually to enhance residents' understanding of reconstruction and support project revitalization.

This year, various topics will be selected each quarter, and a total of four lectures will be conducted by inviting expert instructors.

The first lecture will be given by Professor Ko Jae-pung from the Graduate School of Construction Law at Kwangwoon University, under the theme "Reconstruction Systems and Policies Changing in 2025." The lecture will focus on major changes according to the 2030 Seoul Urban and Residential Environment Maintenance Basic Plan, including ▲introduction of business feasibility correction coefficients ▲recognition of current floor area ratio ▲relaxation of floor area ratio standards for Type 1 and 2 general residential areas ▲adjustment of public contribution rates.

Additionally, it will explain key contents of the revised Maintenance Act, such as ▲lowering the consent requirement for establishing associations to 70% ▲abolition of safety inspections for apartments over 30 years old, providing practical assistance to residents. Lectures can be attended on-site on the day without prior registration.

District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong stated, “I hope this lecture will resolve residents’ questions about the reconstruction system changes in 2025 and help promote maintenance projects,” adding, “Along with the academy, we will accelerate reconstruction speed through on-site education and conflict mediation support by the Reconstruction Dream Support TF advisory committee.”
