The meetings were attended by the heads of offices, bureaus, and departments. They were organized to review the handling of citizen suggestions received on-site from January to July 2025 through town hall meetings, parent talk concerts, and company visits, and to discuss future measures.


In the first half of this year, a total of 592 citizen suggestions were submitted: 183 have been completed, 197 are scheduled for short- or mid-term processing, 139 are undergoing long-term processing, and 73 have been deemed unfeasible.


The city acknowledged that some suggestions require long-term processing or are unfeasible due to difficulties in securing budget, but emphasized that in-depth discussions are ongoing to establish future plans and alternatives. Each department has also pledged to make active efforts to resolve long-standing citizen projects and complex civil complaints.


Through these report meetings, the city aims to establish a systematic approach to processing citizen suggestions and resolve as many as possible. Going forward, Yangju City plans to continue open administration by listening to voices from all walks of life and paying close attention to diverse opinions.



Mayor Kang Suhyun stated, "Suggestions directly related to citizens' safety and daily inconveniences should be addressed promptly, and even for issues that are difficult to accommodate, we must develop multifaceted solutions and present alternatives. Please also ensure that the processing status is explained thoroughly in a way that citizens can easily understand, so that their concerns are alleviated through effective communication."
