Mayor Lee Sang-il of Yongin Special City Listens to Resident Concerns at Gwanggyo Ssangyong Foréjune 1 Complex Under Construction

Mayor Lee Sang-il of Yongin Special City announced on the 28th that he visited the Gwanggyo Ssangyong Foréjune 1 Complex in Sanghyeon-dong, Suji-gu, to listen to resident opinions regarding the nearby apartment construction project.

This was the second time the mayor visited the complex, following his visit to Phase 2 in July. The meeting was attended by city officials, representatives from the residents' association, and some 30 residents.

Residents expressed concerns that if an apartment building is constructed on the adjacent site in Sanghyeon-dong, 342, it would result in violations of their view and sunlight rights and deterioration of their residential environment. They also raised concerns about potential soil contamination since the site was formerly a gas station.

"If I were a resident living here, I think I would raise similar issues," the mayor said, adding "It is important to make efforts to resolve the matter from the residents' perspective." He further stated, "I urge public officials to take responsibility and actively seek solutions," and requested that the project owner take resident concerns seriously and engage in active discussions.

The project involves constructing a total of 108 units, consisting of 96 apartments and 12 officetel units, with a scale of 1 building spanning 2 basement levels to 15 stories above ground.
