On the 19th, Hongseong County, Chungnam, announced that all preliminary administrative procedures for the construction of the new county office building have been completed and that full-scale construction has officially begun.

The construction project for the new office building began in January last year when the Dowon ENC Consortium participated in a private contract, underwent an evaluation of technical proposals by Chungcheongnam-do and a review of the detailed design, and finally signed the contract after completing a review of the construction cost appropriateness in February this year.

With the contract signed between the Dowon ENC Consortium and Hongseong County for the new office building construction, the project, which had faced difficulties such as failed bids, is now expected to get on track.

Prior to this, the county held a groundbreaking ceremony for the new office building in September last year, and the initial construction phase (foundation excavation), which began in October, is now reportedly nearing completion.

Going forward, Hongseong County and the Dowon ENC Consortium plan to closely cooperate on various matters such as construction methods and material supply, and will thoroughly and carefully carry out the project with a focus on ensuring quality and safety.

Jang Donghun, head of the accounting department, said, "Since the main construction contract has been concluded after many twists and turns, we will do our utmost to ensure that the new office building, which will be built in the future, becomes a landmark representing Hongseong for the next 100 years or more."

Meanwhile, the Hongseong County new office building project is being promoted with a total construction cost of 77.6 billion KRW, a total floor area of 24,020 square meters, and a structure of one basement floor and seven above-ground floors, with the goal of completion and occupancy in the first half of 2027.
