[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Um In-yong] Yeoju City announced on October 23 that it will hold a 'Citizen Briefing Session on Yeoju City Development Direction' on October 28 at 2 PM at the Grand Concert Hall on the 1st floor of Yeoju Women's Center.

At the citizen briefing session, the city will provide explanations on the 'Establishment of Master Plan for Revitalizing Original Downtown Yeoju,' including △comprehensive implementation plans for sustainable urban growth in the original downtown area △basic conceptual frameworks for revitalization and short-term, mid-to-long-term strategies by region across four themes (attracting visitors, promoting inflow, facilitating connections, and expanding reach), and will provide opportunities for citizens to share their opinions and feedback.

Regarding the 'Major SOC Development Initiative for Eastern Gyeonggi Province,' the city will explain the issues and alternatives for the eastern Gyeonggi region and present a major SOC development proposal that Yeoju City is suggesting to Gyeonggi Province—a city where development has been difficult due to overlapping regulations—and will listen to citizen opinions.

Notably, Yeoju City Mayor Lee Chung-woo is expected to attend the briefing session to directly hear citizens' concerns about problems in the original downtown area.

The citizen briefing session is open to all. Opinions for the 'Establishment of Master Plan for Revitalizing Original Downtown' can be submitted to the Urban Planning Division of Yeoju City Hall by visiting in person or via email by November 11.
