Councilor Jo Gwan-hoon inquired about the “Request for Securing Mobile Large Pumps to Prepare for Flood Damage Caused by Heavy Rain,” the “Plan to Manage Bus Stops in the County by Linking with Public Job Projects” to save budget and create local jobs, and the “Damyang County’s Position” regarding the expiration of the supply contract for agricultural water from Damyang Lake, currently used as industrial water by Hansol Papertech in Daejeon-myeon.

Councilor Choi Hyun-dong asked about the “Measures to Manage Personal Mobility Devices” that are recklessly abandoned on the streets and threaten citizens’ safety, and the “Snow Removal Measures for Blind Spots Including Rural Villages” in preparation for heavy snowfall in winter.

Councilor Lee Ki-beom continued with questions about “Our County’s Unique Civil Servant Personnel Policy Plan” to boost employees’ work motivation and create a public service culture that everyone can empathize with, and “Practical Welfare Policies That Can Economically Benefit Employees.”

Lastly, Councilor Park Eun-seo concluded the county administration questions by addressing the avoidance of widely used chlorine-based de-icing agents in winter snowfall and promoting the “Use of Eco-friendly De-icing Agents for Environmental Protection,” as well as the “Policies and Practical Operation Plans to Enhance the Performance and Effectiveness of the Carbon Neutral Point System” as envisioned by Damyang County.

Answers to the council members’ questions will be provided at the 3rd plenary session on December 4.
