Yangju City Launches 'Voluntary Administrative Fine Payment' Promotional Campaign

Yangju City implemented a 'Voluntary Administrative Fine Payment Promotion' campaign on the 16th with the participation of staff from the Collection Division and Traffic Division.

The campaign focused on distributing promotional materials to citizens heading home from work at Yangju Station, where large crowds gather, providing information on types of administrative fines, payment methods, and benefits of making payments during the reduced-rate notice period, while encouraging citizens to increase their payment awareness and voluntary payment.

Additionally, the city has designated August 14 to September 30 as a 'Administrative Fine Intensive Settlement Period' and is conducting promotional campaigns at Yangju Station and Deokjeong Station, while making full efforts to promote awareness among citizens through city newsletters, electronic signboards, and village bulletin boards.

During the intensive settlement period, the city plans to encourage voluntary payment through payment notices, guidance text messages, phone calls, and visit-based payment encouragement. For non-payers, the city plans to implement strong enforcement measures including seizure of real estate, deposits, and wages.

A city official said, "Since administrative fine revenues are used as precious financial resources for Yangju City's development, we ask for citizens' keen interest and voluntary payment. We also urge citizens to check their auto insurance expiration dates and vehicle inspection dates in advance, and to pay any outstanding administrative fines within the prescribed period."
