Yongin City Selects 13 Outstanding Proposals from Citizens and Public Officials

Gyeonggi Province's Yongin City announced on July 8 that it held the 'First Half Proposal Review Committee' meeting on July 4, where it selected 13 proposals submitted by citizens and public officials as outstanding suggestions.

The committee reviewed 16 proposals adopted by relevant departments out of a total of 274 proposals received between October last year and April this year, including those submitted for the 'Yongin City Policy Idea Contest.'

As a result of the review, in the citizen proposal category, three suggestions were selected as outstanding: user-friendly sports facilities, the installation of privacy screens in public women's restrooms, and the establishment of a Hall of Fame corner for Hometown Love donors.

In the public official proposal category, five suggestions were selected: easing the book lending service for socially vulnerable groups, improving the reward system for proactive administration mileage, providing tire air pressure check services for visitors to the Vehicle Registration Office, strengthening guide signage for the Yongin Singalcheon Ecological Trail, and enhancing the functionality of the Yongin City Hall website.

Additionally, five proposals submitted to the policy idea contest held in March were also selected as outstanding: establishing a digital skills education center to increase employment and promote innovation in Yongin City; encouraging healthy aging outside of hospitals and homes; "Yongin, the Happy City 365 Days: Citizen-Participatory Emotional Smart Park Project"; improving public restroom hygiene; and supporting and promoting social enterprises within Yongin City.

The results of the review will be individually notified within this month and will also be posted on the city hall website. A city official stated, "We will continue to actively operate the proposal system so that creative opinions can be reflected in city administration."
