The county will conduct a site feasibility study for a total of 36 candidate sites, including those recommended between March 1 and June 30 and those reviewed by the county itself.


The site feasibility study will begin on the 17th and is scheduled to continue until the end of December. The county plans to select a final list of five candidate sites after conducting on-site surveys and analyses, reviewing relevant laws, and evaluating site feasibility.


To ensure expertise and fairness in the study process, a separate citizen deliberation panel for site selection will be formed. This panel will participate in the preparation of the evaluation criteria and will conduct both quantitative and qualitative assessments based on these criteria.


The citizen deliberation panel for site selection will consist of seven experts: two from the funeral and burial sector, two from the transportation sector, one from urban planning, one from forestry, and one from architecture. Members will be selected based on their possession of relevant certifications or more than five years of experience in their respective fields, as well as their extensive knowledge and experience related to site selection.


At this third committee meeting, the plan for selecting the citizen deliberation panel for the construction of the public funeral facility was reviewed and approved. The final panel members will be selected through recommendations from relevant departments by the 30th.



Chairperson Kim Sukyoung stated, "I hope that the citizen deliberation panel and the construction promotion committee will continue thorough discussions until the feasibility study is completed so that the optimal site can be identified."
