Seongnam Mayor Shin Sang-jin is committed to strengthening community-centered administrative services and enhancing resident convenience.
On November 10, Mayor Shin announced the groundbreaking ceremony for the new construction of the Yatap 3-dong Community Center at the site of the old center located at 307 Yatap-dong, marking the official start of the project.
Due to scheduling conflicts, Mayor Shin could not attend the ceremony, which was attended by about 70 people, including city officials, council members, and local residents, who participated in the commemorative speech and groundbreaking ceremony.
This project has been in preparation since 2020 and aims to improve the outdated and cramped existing facility to provide residents with more comfortable administrative and welfare services.
The new center will have a total floor area of 3,789.88 square meters, spanning three underground levels and five above-ground levels, with a target completion date set for December 2028.
Notably, the center will combine administrative and community services, offering various cultural and leisure programs such as yoga and singing classes, while also supporting resident communication and community activation.
This initiative aligns with Mayor Shin's vision of expanding administrative services that residents can feel in their daily lives and improving their quality of life.
Mayor Shin expressed hope that the new center will become a space where residents can access convenient administrative and welfare services and engage in active communication with their neighbors.
Additionally, the city plans to minimize any inconvenience to residents caused by noise and dust during construction and ensure thorough quality and safety management to complete the project without delays.
Since June 22, Mayor Shin has been operating a temporary office on the first floor of the Yatap Building next to the Yatap Youth Center, and the existing center is scheduled for demolition in November, with completion expected by the end of the year.
Mayor Shin added, "We will minimize the inconveniences residents may experience during construction, such as noise and dust, and ensure the new center is completed without any issues through rigorous quality and safety management."
Furthermore, Mayor Shin plans to continue improving aging public facilities and expanding infrastructure closely related to citizens' lives to enhance administrative services that residents can feel and to create a more convenient and safe urban environment.
