Pyeongtaek City Accelerates Plans for Multipurpose Funeral Facility Construction

Launch of Basic Concept and Feasibility Study
Construction to Begin in 2028, Completion Targeted for 2030

Pyeongtaek City in Gyeonggi Province is beginning to develop a comprehensive plan for the construction of a multipurpose funeral facility in Eunsan 1-ri, Jinwi-myeon.

On December 8, Pyeongtaek City announced that it will launch a "basic concept and feasibility study for the construction of a multipurpose funeral facility" at the beginning of this month. Through this study, the city plans to establish the basic outline of the "Pyeongtaek Public Multipurpose Funeral Facility" (tentative name) within next year.

Currently, there are no cremation facilities in Pyeongtaek City, so residents must use facilities in other cities and counties. To address this issue, the city conducted an open call for candidate sites for the multipurpose funeral facility in September last year, and after eight months, Eunsan 1-ri in Jinwi-myeon was finally selected as the construction site this past May.

This study will comprehensively analyze the basic construction plan and specific project implementation procedures, including a review of the social and economic feasibility of the facility and the spatial layout of the building, in order to propose an efficient project implementation plan.

To this end, the city announced a bid for the study on November 17 and selected a contractor on November 21. The city plans to begin the study as soon as the contract procedures are completed. The study period is 10 months.

Based on the results of the study, the city will proceed with administrative procedures such as the feasibility study (LIMAC), local fiscal investment review, basic architectural plan, and urban planning facility designation, with the goal of starting construction in 2028 and completing the project in 2030.
