According to the county on November 26, the briefing session was organized to explain the necessity of the Happy Housing project, the main facilities, and the future operation plan. After providing detailed explanations regarding the tenant selection process-which had been a concern for nearby residents-the session proceeded with a Q&A segment to address residents' questions.


Residents expressed expectations and support for the project, anticipating improvements to the local residential environment and an increase in population as a result of the Happy Housing construction.


'Chamsaemgol Happy Housing' is a core public housing project aimed at providing stable, stay-type residential spaces for students and parents in line with the opening of Deokyusaem School, while also improving settlement conditions for a diverse range of groups including young people, newlyweds, and the elderly.


The county is investing a total of 5.8 billion won from this year through May next year to develop the project in Eojeon-ri, Gaebok-myeon. The site covers an area of 2,396 square meters, with a total floor area of 1,356 square meters, and will consist of 18 units in a four-story building.


The housing supply types are arranged by exclusive area: 35.80 square meters (6 units), 45.51 square meters (6 units), and 55.77 square meters (6 units). The various floor plans are distributed across the floors to reflect the housing needs of students, parents, young people, and the elderly.


Regarding tenant selection, the county explained a plan to announce recruitment by dividing applicants into Deokyusaem School-related parties and Gaebok-myeon residents such as young people, newlyweds, and the elderly. The detailed criteria will be finalized by reflecting residents' opinions before the official announcement.


To minimize traffic congestion, the county has incorporated road widening, installation of a roundabout, and enhancement of pedestrian safety facilities into the design. The building layout was also planned to secure sufficient distance from surrounding residences, thereby reducing everyday noise as much as possible.


County Governor Choi Hunsik stated, "Chamsaemgol Happy Housing is a key project to improve residential conditions in rural areas facing severe population decline, and in particular, to provide stable housing for Deokyusaem School students, parents, as well as young people, newlyweds, and the elderly in Gaebok-myeon. We expect this project will greatly contribute to revitalizing the region and expanding the settlement base."



He added, "Going forward, we will prioritize communication with residents, actively incorporate feedback raised during the project implementation process, and do our utmost to ensure that Chamsaemgol Happy Housing becomes a model public rental housing project that harmonizes with the local community."
