Pocheon City Seizes Real Estate of Chronic Environmental Improvement Fee Delinquents

Pocheon City announced on the 28th that it has seized real estate and credit card sales of chronic delinquents in environmental improvement fees.

From January to December this year, the city has implemented customized delinquent processing and continuous encouragement, collecting 10,131 cases totaling 340 million won in overdue payments dating back over 15 years, including amounts from 2001.

Additionally, among chronic delinquents who have failed to pay despite collection encouragement over the past year, the city has seized credit card sales of 28 transportation companies that have been receiving fuel subsidies for several years and are delinquent on approximately 106 million won across 1,125 cases.

In particular, the city has seized real estate owned by 17 individuals with 18 properties totaling 29,267 square meters that are subject to delinquency.

If payment is not made by the end of this month, the city plans to request public sale through Korea Asset Management Corporation and use the sales proceeds to cover the environmental improvement fee delinquency.
