Suwon to Establish Legal Basis for Disaster Relief Fund Disbursement

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] The ‘Partial Amendment to the Suwon City Disaster Management Fund Operation and Management Ordinance,’ sponsored by Suwon City Council Member Kim Jin-gwan (Democratic Party, representing Ji·Uman 1·2·Haengung·Ingye-dong), was promulgated on the 19th.

The amended ordinance newly establishes the definition of “disaster relief funds,” referring to money and goods provided to citizens and business owners experiencing economic difficulties due to disasters, as existing ordinances have limitations in providing support given the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

In this regard, Council Member Kim stated, “Through this amended ordinance, I hope to contribute in some way to revitalizing Suwon's stagnant local economy and alleviating the economic burden on those facing difficulties.”
