In addition, four public officials and council staff members recognized for their contributions to legislative development, as well as 14 residents recommended by the heads of each town and township, were also honored. These individuals have played vital roles in supporting the community across various fields, including administration, welfare, and local volunteer work.
Chairman Kang Younggu stated, "I extend my deepest gratitude and congratulations to all of today's award recipients," emphasizing, "The council will continue to work alongside residents to create a happier Yecheon through legislative activities that truly resonate with the community."
This awards ceremony has been evaluated as a renewed reminder that the achievements of local governance ultimately stem from the dedication of individuals.
