The city announced that it has concluded the "2027 Major Work Promotion Plan Report Meeting," which was held over four days from the 7th to the 10th.


During this meeting, participants reviewed the major achievements of 2026 and discussed key projects and current issues for each department, as well as potential challenges expected in the course of project implementation and corresponding improvement measures. The necessity and feasibility of each project, strategies to secure funding, and matters related to interdepartmental cooperation were also closely examined.


Throughout the 9th term, the city plans to focus its administrative capacity and resources not merely on expanding or repeating existing projects, but rather on core areas where citizens can truly notice changes. Policies scattered across departments will be organically linked to further enhance project effectiveness.


In particular, the main work plan will incorporate policy reform directions across six key fields: education, tourism, agriculture, youth and teenagers, the local economy and small business owners, and administration. The city also plans to strengthen connections between policies and cooperation among departments.


During the budgeting process for 2027, the city will thoroughly review the necessity, effectiveness, and urgency of each project, ensuring that strategic funding is allocated to key projects of the 9th term and to initiatives with a highly tangible impact on citizens. Feedback and supplementary points raised during the report meeting will also be reflected in the main work plans and the budget proposal.



Mayor Lee Choongwoo stated, "It is not enough to simply carry out projects as planned; we must also consider how they will actually benefit citizens. Please focus our limited resources and administrative capabilities on areas where they are truly needed and deliver concrete results that people can directly experience."
