The inspection was carried out by city officials from Yeongcheon as well as private professionals specializing in architecture, electricity, gas, and fire safety, who examined the overall safety management based on their expertise.

Major checkpoints included the safety condition of buildings and facilities, management of electrical systems, potential gas leaks, maintenance and management of fire safety equipment, and the securing of emergency exits and evacuation passages.

A Yeongcheon City official stated, "As more citizens use multi-use facilities during the Chuseok holiday than usual, it is important to inspect safety management in advance. We will continue to do our utmost for safety management so that citizens can feel secure during the holidays, working in collaboration with private experts and related organizations."

Meanwhile, Yeongcheon City has launched a 'Task Force for Military Facility Relocation Response,' composed mainly of working-level staff from relevant departments, to systematically and efficiently push forward the relocation project for the Second Ammunition Depot in the Nambu-dong area.

The city plans to organically link work in areas such as establishing the relocation plan, consulting with related agencies, and reviewing urban planning and infrastructure, in order to concentrate administrative efforts on revitalizing the local economy and creating quality jobs, including the development of a defense industry special zone.
