Paldal-gu Completes Facility Improvement Project at Changryong Gate Gateball Court

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] Paldal-gu (District Chief Baek Un-o) announced on the 8th that it has completed the "Changryong Gate Gateball Court Facility Improvement Project," which was pursued through participatory budgeting by residents.

The facility improvement project for the Changryong Gate Gateball Court, located at 267-17 Jidong, was carried out through participatory budgeting by residents. Considering the outdoor conditions of the gateball court, the project focused on creating a safe and comfortable environment where elderly residents, the main user group, can enjoy gateball without being affected by extreme heat or rainy weather.

Accordingly, the district designated the participatory budgeting project proposer as an honorary supervisor in March and gathered resident input to complete the facility improvement project by installing motorized shade screens so residents can use the gateball court comfortably and safely.

District Chief Baek Un-o of Paldal-gu stated, "This project was pursued with a focus on enhancing resident satisfaction. Separate from the installation of shade screens, we ask users to refrain from outdoor activities during adverse weather conditions such as extreme heat and cold waves," adding, "We will continue to conduct inspections to ensure residents can enjoy healthy sports activities in a convenient environment."
