On the 28th of last month, Guri City held the inaugural meeting of the “Guritopyeong 2 Public Housing District Private-Public-Community Consultative Body,” with resident representatives, officials from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Gyeonggi Province, and Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) in attendance, the city announced on September 1.

The Guritopyeong 2 Public Housing District was designated as a public housing district on December 31, 2025. The project operator, LH, is currently formulating the district plan, which outlines the city’s structure, including housing, self-sufficiency facilities, the transportation system, and basic infrastructure.

The consultative body, led by LH, was established to address residents' suggestions and key issues arising during the project implementation process and to share the results of reviews and courses of action taken by relevant agencies.

On this day, participants checked the current status and upcoming procedures of the project, and discussed matters including the establishment of the district plan, compensation, relocation, and strategies for residents' resettlement.

Mayor Shin Donghwa presented three priority tasks for the consultative body: ensuring reasonable compensation for landowners, confirming alternatives for the wide-area transportation network, and drafting concrete plans for self-sufficiency functions. He also called on the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and LH for active cooperation in addressing key issues.

Moving forward, Guri City plans to continuously discuss project-related issues at each stage through the consultative body, and to strengthen cooperation with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Gyeonggi Province, and LH so that residents’ opinions and the results of related agencies' reviews are fully incorporated into the district plan.

Issues not resolved during this meeting, or those requiring additional review, will be discussed further through separate regular meetings.

Mayor Shin Donghwa stated, “I hope the Private-Public-Community Consultative Body becomes a platform for genuine discussion that goes beyond one-time opinion gathering and, through sufficient information sharing and ongoing follow-up dialogue, broadens understanding between residents and related agencies and effectively resolves key issues.”
