Uiwang City Completes Ownership Transfer of Poil Eoul-rim Center through Donation Handover

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] The ownership of Poil Eoul-rim Center (including Poil Sports Center) at 686 Poil-dong, Uiwang City has been transferred to Uiwang City.

On the 25th, Uiwang City completed the donation handover of the Poil Eoul-rim Center, a comprehensive community center, from Korea Trust Co., Ltd., the project operator for the development of the former Korea Rural Community and Agriculture Corporation site, and completed the ownership transfer registration under the city's name.

Following the execution of a donation handover agreement in May 2016 for the construction of a comprehensive community center that contributes to development as an advanced self-sufficient city and improvement of residents' quality of life, the city completed the ownership registration transfer after undergoing construction completion and facility handover procedures. As a result, interior construction projects at each floor of the Poil Eoul-rim Center are expected to accelerate.

The Poil Eoul-rim Center comprises two buildings: an administrative building housing a comprehensive early childhood support center, youth cultural center, Poil Eoul-rim Library, Uiwang Youth Development Center Poil Center, and Uiwang City Startup Support Center as startup spaces; and a sports building containing a swimming pool, bowling center, and multipurpose gymnasium.

Choi Won-ho, head of the city's accounting division, said, "We are preparing thoroughly so that citizens will be able to use the Poil Sports Center in January 2021. For the administrative building, we plan to open sequentially starting from floors completed with interior construction by May 2021."

Mayor Kim Sang-don of Uiwang City stated, "The Poil Eoul-rim Center will be developed into a comprehensive community center that serves as a space where people from infants to young adults can enjoy various education and sports programs together and communicate with one another, as well as a startup support space where aspiring entrepreneurs can realize their dreams." He added, "The Poil Eoul-rim Center is expected to gain attention as a new landmark of Uiwang City."
