Bucheon to Hold Resident Information Session on 'Jungdong 1st Phase New Town Redevelopment Master Plan' on the 24th

Bucheon City, Gyeonggi Province, will hold a resident information session on July 24 at the City Hall Eoulmadang Hall to present the "Master Plan for the Redevelopment of the First Phase of Jungdong New Town."

The city has prepared the session to explain key details of the recently established master plan to residents and to share the main points of the amended Special Act on Maintenance and Support for Aging Planned Cities, which will take effect on August 4.

The master plan outlines the direction for urban space restructuring and implementation strategies, presenting five key areas: ▲setting the direction of the urban vision ▲concept and planning of land use ▲sector-specific plans ▲core strategies for future housing ▲establishment of models for designated special maintenance zones.

The city will explain the procedures for promoting reconstruction and maintenance projects, the process for designating business operators, and measures to support expedited progress. A Q&A session will also be held. In addition, residents' opinions gathered during the session will be reflected in the establishment of the special maintenance plan. The city also plans to continue collecting regional feedback through on-site briefings for each special (planned) maintenance zone.

Previously, last month, the city designated and announced Eunha Village, its leading reconstruction district in the first phase of Jungdong New Town, as a special maintenance zone. As the first special maintenance zone within Jungdong New Town, Eunha Village will be redeveloped into a residential complex with up to 49 floors and 3,432 housing units.

Bandal Village A, another leading district, designated Korea Land & Housing Corporation (LH) as its preliminary project operator in May and is currently drafting a special maintenance plan. Junghung Village, too, designated Korea Land Trust as its preliminary project operator last month and is in the process of establishing its special maintenance plan. Other areas, including Podo Village, Sarang & Kkumdongsan Village, Boram Village, and Geumgang Village, are preparing to apply for preliminary project operator designation, expanding redevelopment efforts throughout Jungdong New Town.

Cho Yongik, Mayor of Bucheon, stated, "The redevelopment of the first phase of Jungdong New Town is a project built together with citizens, making communication with residents more important than ever," adding, "We will continue to actively reflect residents' opinions to ensure smooth progress of the redevelopment project."
