Shinan County has initiated a verification process allowing residents to assess the feasibility and funding plans of key promises made by the 9th elected administration.
On October 1, Shinan County held an inauguration ceremony and meeting for the '9th Elected Administration Promise Evaluation Committee' in the county hall's video conference room, where 15 newly appointed committee members reviewed the overall action plans for the promises.
The evaluation focuses on five key areas: implementing a rural renaissance, innovating land and maritime transportation, improving welfare and healthcare systems, promoting stay-type tourism, and advancing renewable energy.
The meeting included the presentation of appointment letters to committee members and the election of a chairperson, followed by discussions on the direction and action plans for each promise.
The committee specifically examined the funding plans for each promise, their actual feasibility, and the community's perception. The focus was on ensuring that the promises are not merely proposals but can be effectively translated into actionable projects from the residents' perspective.
Shinan County plans to relay the committee's feedback to the relevant departments for further review of each project. Any necessary adjustments identified during this review process will be incorporated into the action plans before finalization.
The finalized action plans will be made public on the county's official website. The county aims to maintain transparency and accountability not only during the promise formulation stage but also throughout the project implementation process by continuously monitoring and disclosing the status of the promises.
Kim Tae-sung, the mayor of Shinan County, stated, "Since promises are commitments to the residents, it is crucial to transparently disclose the implementation process. We will actively reflect the committee's objective assessments and the voices from the field to enhance the feasibility of the promises and create tangible changes that residents can feel in their lives."
Meanwhile, Shinan County plans to continue its resident-participation evaluations of the 9th elected administration's promises, using the committee's feedback and departmental review results to refine detailed action plans and ensure ongoing public disclosure of the status of each promise after finalization.
