Mayor Kang Soo-hyeon of Yangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, “We will ensure the soundness of financial management”

 “All departments in Yangju City should strive to establish sound finances so that citizens’ tax money is not wasted.”

[Break News Yangju = Reporter Kim Wan-young] Yangju Mayor Kang Soo-hyeon said at an executive meeting held on the 21st, “Due to the government’s historically tight fiscal policy and the decrease in grant taxes and city self-funding resources, the financial conditions and city administration operations are expected to be very difficult next year.” He said this.

Yangju City took steps to ensure the soundness of its financial operations.

As national tax revenue declines and provincial financial conditions worsen due to the economic downturn, local allocation taxes and general adjustment grants are expected to decrease significantly next year.

Accordingly, as a result of the 2024 budget plan, the city held a 'Budget Reduction Promotion Plan Report' on the 21st, believing that efforts to manage financial soundness were necessary due to a decrease of 33.8 billion in autonomous resources, including local allocation taxes and general adjustment grants, compared to the previous year.

By department, ▲ Freezing capacity and deploying efficient personnel through manpower efficiency ▲ Saving energy and consumables, maximizing budget execution through thorough contract review ▲ Prohibiting use of the budget for purposes other than its intended purpose and unnecessary execution ▲ All projects are zero-based We took the time to report on various ways to reduce the budget, such as reconsideration, integration of events and festivals, and review of the sale of public property that has been abolished.

The city plans to share the budget reduction methods reported on this day with all departments to ensure efficiency and transparency in budget execution and prevent budget waste.

  In addition, in order to cooperate with all departments in situations of financial crisis to prepare response strategies and secure the soundness of financial operations to promote stability and sustainable growth of Yangju City, the city has formed a 'Sound Finance Special Measures Task Force (TF Team)' and is embarking on full-scale activities. .

  The promotion team is headed by Park Seong-nam, deputy mayor of Yangju City, and is in charge of discovering and discussing mid- to long-term response plans to ensure the soundness of financial management.

The promotion team plans to hold special measures for sound finances at least once a week and review problems and solutions to the plans discussed at the meetings to establish a ‘basic plan for Yangju City’s financial management.’

Yangju Mayor Kang Soo-hyeon said, “I hope that all departments will seek their own reduction measures while setting priorities and promoting major projects so that necessary projects can be implemented in a timely manner through selection and concentration.” “I will strive to create Yangju City where everyone is happy and where everyone wants to live,” he said.
