Paju City publishes ‘About Licensing’ booklet to resolve questions about licensing in various fields

Paju City published the ‘About Licenses’ guidebook on licensing to help citizens resolve their questions about licensing, which they have always found difficult.

The About License booklet contains comprehensive information on permissions in five areas, including construction permission, development activity permission, mountain land conversion permission, farmland conversion permission (including farmland fill), and factory establishment permission.

Unlike the licensing-related books published by Paju City so far, which consist of rigid content focusing on laws and procedures, this book focuses on cases that ordinary citizens and building owners may be curious about, and uses various pictures and illustrations to make it easier to understand.

The publication of this booklet is based on the Civil Complaint Administration Service 2·5·7 system to shorten the permit processing period (request for consultation with relevant departments within 2 days after receipt of permit, reply with consultation within 5 days, and notify the building owner of the first result within 7 days) ) is the result of the licensing innovation policy that strives to communicate better with citizens and make licensing more convenient.

In particular, since April of this year, about 20 employees in charge of licensing at the Building and Housing Bureau have been working hard to publish a booklet by putting their heads together and participating in several planning and editing meetings to produce a permit booklet that is easy for citizens to understand. In addition, design companies such as the Paju Area Architectural Society and the Paju City Surveying Association actively cooperated with the publication of the booklet, participating in editorial meetings and sparing no effort in providing advice on areas that citizens were curious about.

Paju Mayor Kim Gyeong-il said, “Paju City has made a lot of effort to innovate licensing administration, and the results have been surprising.” He added, “I hope that through the publication of this booklet, citizens will feel more familiar with licensing, and that Paju City will continue to improve licensing administration.” “We will work harder to become a national model,” he said.

The booklet will be distributed through towns, villages, villages and major institutions starting in January 2025, and will also be posted for viewing on the Paju City website.

Meanwhile, Paju City was selected as an excellent institution in the ‘2024 Agricultural Policy Evaluation’ hosted by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs on the 17th.

The Agricultural Policy Evaluation is an award given by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs since 1996 to local governments across the country by evaluating their rice industry policies, which are the core of agriculture. It is a comprehensive list of various indicators such as securing stable rice production, creating a high-quality rice production base, and efforts to reduce production costs. Analysis and evaluation are made.

This year’s evaluation was conducted with a focus on efforts to achieve optimal rice production and conversion to rice paddy crop cultivation.

In the meantime, Paju City has been actively implementing the ‘Strategic Crop Direct Payment System’ to encourage the cultivation of other crops such as beans and forage in rice fields. In particular, farmers have been encouraged to grow other crops instead of rice by including not only paddy soybeans but also corn as eligible for strategic crop direct payments and expanding farmland eligible for summer forage.

Accordingly, the new application area for strategic crop direct payments this year reached 121.2 hectares (ha), exceeding the target area of ​​86.8 hectares (ha) by 140%.

Paju Mayor Kim Gyeong-il said, “This award is the fruit of our efforts to stabilize rice supply and demand and diversify farmers’ income,” and added, “We will do our best to increase farm income by continuing to discover field-tailored policies with farmers.”
