Asan Mayor Oh Sehyun's First Official Approval: Establishment of Tangjeong 2 High School... "Opening as Scheduled"

Signed the "Urban Planning Facility Decision for the Establishment of Tangjeong 2 High School"

Oh Sehyun, Mayor of Asan in South Chungcheong Province, signed the "Urban Planning Facility Decision for the Establishment of Tangjeong 2 High School" as his first official approval on the afternoon of the 3rd to promptly resolve the delay in establishing Tangjeong 2 High School.

Tangjeong 2 High School was scheduled to open in March next year with 45 classes (1,169 students) on a 14,488-square-meter site at 523 Galsan-ri, Tangjeong-myeon. However, the opening was delayed because the developer, Tangjeong Jeil Industrial Complex, failed to meet the development permit conditions.

To proceed with the development, the developer must purchase more than 80% of the site, but negotiations have been delayed due to price issues.

This approval is interpreted as a demonstration of the city's commitment to push forward with the urban planning facility decision to prevent further delays in establishing Tangjeong 2 High School.

The city immediately began the decision-making process upon approval and plans to swiftly complete consultations with South Chungcheong Province and the Office of Education, while also actively supporting negotiations between the developer and landowners.

Mayor Oh stated, "I am well aware of the inconvenience and concerns experienced by students and parents due to the delay in opening Tangjeong 2 High School," adding, "As mayor, I will do my utmost to ensure the school opens without any setbacks by mobilizing all available administrative resources."

He also emphasized, "I will fully utilize the networks built with the provincial government and the Office of Education," and "I will take on the role of an active mediator to facilitate a swift agreement between the project developer and landowners."

Meanwhile, on the 13th of last month, then-candidate Mayor Oh attended a meeting with the Tangjeong High School Promotion Committee and promised to make this agenda item his first official approval.

He stressed, "I will work to ensure that students in the Tangjeong and Baebang areas do not lose eligibility for rural admission benefits due to the delayed opening," and added, "I will request the South Chungcheong Office of Education to distribute students as close to their homes as possible and prepare measures to support commuting."
