Hwaseong City Launches Consultation for Promoting Tourism on Jebu Island and Revising District Unit Plan

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Choi Ki-ho] Hwaseong City will conduct a project through September next year to develop plans for revitalizing tourism on Jebu Island and to revise the district unit plan for tourism and recreation that aligns with these plans.

The city held a project kick-off meeting on the 30th in a small conference room at City Hall, attended by Park Min-chul, Director of Leisure, Culture and Education, relevant departments, and project contractors.

Through this project, the city plans to resolve issues that have emerged during seven years of operating the tourism and recreation district unit plan established in November 2016 for systematic and planned management of Jebu Island, and to develop tourism revitalization strategies while listening to and reflecting residents' opinions as much as possible within the legal scope.

Accordingly, the city plans to hold a residents' briefing session in November to solicit residents' opinions for the first time.

Park Min-chul, Director of Leisure, Culture and Education, said, "This project to develop tourism revitalization measures for Jebu Island will serve as an opportunity to revitalize the local economy where both residents and the city can achieve mutual prosperity."
