Lee Ik-sung, Bupyeong District Council Member, "Proactive Budget Support is Urgently Needed as Old Government Buildings' Heating and Cooling Systems are Neglected Amid Climate Crisis"

Lee Ik-sung, Bupyeong District Council Member (People Power Party·Bupyeong 2, 5, 6-dong, Bugae 1-dong, Ilshin-dong) called for proactive and preemptive administration from the district office regarding the poor management of aging public buildings due to extreme climate change and the ongoing conflict over the GTX-B line, which is the district's biggest issue.

During a report on planning and budget on the 28th, Council Member Lee stated, "Due to abnormal weather such as El Niño, the heating and cooling systems of aging government buildings, including the Dong Administrative Welfare Center, are frequently breaking down," and criticized, "It is a ridiculous situation where even events attended by the district mayor are held in cold rooms due to lack of repair funds."

In particular, Council Member Lee emphasized, "Even if we apply for emergency repair funds, it takes months for grants to be approved, leading to a serious administrative misalignment where 'budgets applied for in cold weather are released in hot weather,'" urging the establishment of flexible financial management measures in preparation for the climate crisis, such as budget allocations for comprehensive project costs.

In a query to the communication office, he directly addressed the issue of the installation of the GTX-B ventilation shaft near Baegun Station. He stated, "Due to the construction being carried out for convenience, trees in Baegun Park are being cut down, and residents are camping in tents during the harsh winter," emphasizing that the communication office should go beyond simple monitoring and activate a systematic public conflict management system to mediate so that residents do not feel alienated.

Regarding the hot topic of the specific audit of the self-sufficiency center, he reaffirmed procedural transparency. Through a Q&A with the auditor, he secured a commitment that, while adhering to legal procedures such as the objection period, a final result that residents can accept will be reported by March 23 at the latest, before the next temporary session.

Additionally, Council Member Lee meticulously checked closely related livelihood issues, urging for substantial work progress on matters such as ▲ maximizing the use of media glasses by the public relations office ▲ complete replacement of outdated 'I Learning Center' computers (2015 model) ▲ improvement of the verification process for benefits of the unmanned control system in public parking lots.
