Transition Committee for 9th Democratically-elected Namyangju Mayor's Office Opens Citizens' Rights Committee; Plaque Unveiling Ceremony on the 11th

[Suwon Ilbo = Reporter Eom In-yong] The transition committee for the mayor's office, which will establish new municipal governance direction for the 9th democratically-elected Namyangju and lay the groundwork for executing campaign pledges, officially launched on the 11th under the name "Citizens' Rights Committee."

The transition committee, which reflects Mayor-elect Choi Hyun-deok's municipal governance philosophy and pledge system, held a plaque unveiling ceremony at an office in Geumgok-dong that day and commenced full-scale preparation for new municipal governance.

The ceremony was attended by Mayor-elect Choi Hyun-deok, Committee Chair Kyung Seong-suk (former chief of staff to National Assembly members from the 17th-21st terms), Vice Chair Son Young-hee (head of the Gyeonggi East Branch of the Korea Women Entrepreneurs Association), and other transition committee officials as well as Namyangju's Vice Mayor.

The transition committee, adopting the slogan "Practice-oriented transition committee that citizens experience and connects to change," operates based on five operational principles: ▲citizens' rights ▲on-site focus ▲expertise ▲practicality ▲and accountability.

The organization is composed of four divisions: Planning and Autonomy, Future Economy, Urban Transportation and Environment, and Welfare, Culture, and Education.

Each division examines municipal governance tasks by field from planning and budgeting through employment, transportation, and welfare, comprehensively reviewing the feasibility of pledges, priority sequencing, and financing methods.

In particular, to advance Mayor-elect Choi Hyun-deok's core campaign pledges, the committee separately established the "Fiscal Innovation Special Committee" and the "Apartment Management Fee Special Committee."

Following the plaque unveiling ceremony, the transition committee will hold a workshop on the 12th at the Tasandong Jeong Yak-yong Library.

At the workshop, the committee will conduct orientation for committee operations and develop specific activity plans by division while accelerating the municipal governance transition procedure.

Mayor-elect Choi Hyun-deok emphasized, "The Citizens' Rights Committee will be the blueprint that depicts a successful starting point for the 9th democratically-elected Namyangju," and added, "We will carefully examine major issues and campaign pledges to place citizens' voices at the center of municipal governance and create change that citizens can directly experience in their lives."
