Yangpyeong County Residents Directly Identify Safety Blind Spots

[Suwon Ilbo=Eom In-yong Reporter] Yangpyeong County announced on the 1st that it will fully launch the '2026 Intensive Safety Inspection Residential Request System' to address safety blind spots in the local community from the perspective of county residents.

The 'Intensive Safety Inspection Residential Request System' is a system in which residents can directly request inspections of facilities where disasters or safety accidents are a concern. It aims to move away from administration-centered inspection methods, heighten residents' interest and participation in safety, and establish a practical safety net.

Inspection targets include small-scale public facilities such as community centers and senior centers where risks are feared due to cracks or deterioration, children's play facilities, and traditional markets and other daily life-related facilities. However, facilities that are subject to periodic inspections under individual laws or are undergoing construction or legal proceedings (disputes) are excluded.

Interested parties can apply from January 1 to June 1 by visiting each eup or myeon office or through the 'Safety Report' website or mobile app. Field experts and civil servants will conduct joint inspections of selected sites during the '2026 Intensive Safety Inspection' period from April 20 to June 19, and the results will be shared with the applicants and facility managers.

County Governor Jeon Jin-seon said, "Active interest from residents is the key driving force for creating a safe Yangpyeong," and added, "We will do our best to carefully examine risk factors in daily life to prevent accidents and build an 'Appealing Yangpyeong' where everyone can feel secure."
