On September 11, the city held the '9th Mayoral Term Pledge Implementation Report Meeting' in the main conference room of City Hall, presided over by Mayor An Jaemin, to review detailed action plans for 44 pledges.

The meeting was attended by the vice mayor, department and division heads, and heads of departments responsible for each pledge.

Twenty department heads reported on the specifics of each pledge-related project, their annual implementation plans, and funding strategies, engaging in focused discussions on project feasibility and anticipated key issues.

Starting with this meeting, Sangju City will systematically track the progress of each promise and strengthen interdepartmental collaboration for projects requiring cross-departmental cooperation.

For initiatives that require mid-to-long-term funding, the city plans to continually seek solutions, such as securing national and provincial financial support, to enhance project execution capabilities.

In particular, the city aims to shift away from merely monitoring completion rates and to focus on achieving tangible outcomes that citizens can notice and appreciate in their daily lives.

The city also intends to proactively address challenges that may arise during implementation to ensure a high level of fulfillment for each pledge.

Mayor An Jaemin stated, "Pledges are commitments to our citizens, and it is vital that they do not remain just as plans but are realized as tangible results. Please approach each of the 44 pledges with a strong sense of responsibility and turn them into meaningful changes that citizens can truly experience."

He added, "Taking the action plans established today as a starting point, we will pursue all 44 pledges without fail and realize each commitment we have made to our citizens."

The first test for Sangju City's 9th mayoral administration is not the 'number' of pledges, but its ability to execute. How quickly and concretely the 44 commitments are translated into outcomes that citizens can feel will become the key metric for evaluating Mayor An Jaemin's leadership.
