Prior to the regular meeting, a commissioning ceremony was held to appoint Mayor Kim Dong-geun as an honorary resident autonomy committee member of Heungseon-dong.
Chairperson Oh Young-kyung said, "The mayor's sincere effort to communicate closely with residents was very touching," and added, "We hope he will continue to be a mayor who works together with citizens through ongoing exchanges and communication with various organizations."
Mayor Kim Dong-geun stated, "We will activate communication with local residents to increase policy satisfaction and expand participation opportunities for groups that may feel marginalized, thereby strengthening the cohesion of the local community," and added, "We will do our best to enhance residents' trust in city administration and lay the foundation for Uijeongbu City to carry out more resident-centered governance."
