Jangheung-gun will reduce cadastral survey fees for special disaster areas damaged by heavy rain for two years. Jangheung-gun announced that it would reduce cadastral survey waterways in two towns, Jangheung-eup and Yongsan-myeon, which were declared special disaster areas due to heavy rain, for two years.
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport decided to reduce the economic burden on residents affected by heavy rain and help speed up damage recovery through this cadastral survey fee reduction.
Applicable subjects can receive a reduction for cadastral surveying (boundary restoration, division, cadastral status, etc.) required for damage recovery. The exemption is available for two years from the date of declaration of a special disaster area.
As for the reduction rate, the cadastral survey fee is reduced by 100% for buildings (destroyed or lost) such as residential houses, and by 50% for land without other buildings.
Damaged residents who wish to apply for a cadastral survey must obtain and submit a ‘Damage Confirmation Form’ detailing damage caused by heavy rain from the county office in order to receive a fee reduction.
Applications for cadastral surveys can be made by visiting the cadastral survey reception desk of the Happiness Civil Service Department at Jangheung-gun Office or through the cadastral survey immediate processing center or immediate processing call center.
An official from Jangheung-gun said, “With the approval of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s cadastral survey fee reduction, we expect to alleviate some of the financial burden on residents affected by heavy rain and help them quickly return to their daily lives.”
Meanwhile, on the 4th, Jangheung-gun and the Jangheung-gun Public Officials Union encouraged employees whose children are taking the College Scholastic Ability Test.
At the event, the civil servants union delivered gifts to nine union members whose children are scheduled to take the CSAT this year.
Choi Geun-yeong, chairman of the Jangheung-gun Civil Servants’ Union, said, “Unlike previous years, this year’s CSAT is subject to many changes in the entrance exam environment, so I hope that we will achieve good results by maintaining our best condition until the end so that we can obtain the desired results.”
Kim Seong, mayor of Jangheung County, said, “If you believe in yourself based on your efforts so far, you will definitely get good results,” and added, “I hope that you will be able to focus and achieve the results you want by managing your health during the remaining period.”
The military and public employee unions are working to improve employee welfare and form desirable labor-management relations by consistently discovering and implementing policies to balance work and family.
The Jangheung-gun Anyang-myeon Community Security Council (Chairman Baek Soo-young and Kim Jong-bae) visited a family in the area who had given birth for the first time in a long time and delivered a congratulatory gift.
The main characters are a couple living in Deokdong Village, Anyang-myeon, and are known to have recently given birth to their third child.
In Anyang-myeon, on the 6th, to share the joy of giving birth, they visited a family in Haengdang and delivered congratulatory gifts such as diapers, powdered milk, and gift certificates.
The birth celebration product support project is being promoted as a specialized project by the council to overcome the low birth rate crisis and celebrate the birth of a child with the local community.
Baek Soo-young, head of the county, said, “Continued interest and support are needed so that local children can grow up healthy and happy,” and added, “We will spare no effort in providing various support to make Anyang-myeon a good place to have and raise children.”

Interview: Reducing Economic Burdens Through Cadastral Survey Fee Waivers in Jangheung-gun
Time.news Editor: Welcome to our segment today where we explore recent developments that impact our communities. Joining us is Dr. Han Soo-jin, an expert in public policy and disaster recovery. Thank you for being here, Dr. Han.
Dr. Han Soo-jin: Thank you for having me!
Editor: Let’s dive right in. Jangheung-gun recently announced a significant reduction in cadastral survey fees for areas hit hard by heavy rains. How important do you think this decision is for the residents affected?
Dr. Han: This initiative is crucial for those affected by the disaster. Cadastral surveys are essential for restoring property boundaries and ensuring residents can rebuild. By waiving these fees for two years, the government is alleviating a financial burden that could hinder recovery efforts.
Editor: The announcement indicated a 100% fee reduction for buildings that were destroyed or lost. What impact do you think such a measure will have on the recovery process?
Dr. Han: Absolutely transformative. Losing a home is devastating, and the financial implications of rebuilding can be overwhelming. By covering these fees, the government not only speeds up the recovery process but also provides reassurance to residents that help is on the way. It will encourage them to start rebuilding sooner rather than later.
Editor: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport is also involved in this initiative. How does such collaboration between different governmental agencies affect disaster recovery?
Dr. Han: Collaboration is key. When agencies work together, they can provide more comprehensive support to affected communities. The Ministry’s involvement signifies a commitment to disaster recovery at a national level, and it sets a precedent for local governments to take swift action when emergencies arise.
Editor: What do residents need to do to access this fee reduction?
Dr. Han: Residents must submit a ‘Damage Confirmation Form’ obtained from the county office. This form documents the extent of the damage caused by the heavy rains. After that, they can apply either in person at the local government office or through a designated processing center, which simplifies the process for them.
Editor: It sounds like a well-structured plan. Beyond monetary relief, what other ways can local governments support communities recovering from natural disasters?
Dr. Han: Emotional and psychological support is just as vital as financial assistance. Local governments can provide counseling services and community events to promote healing and unity. Additionally, they can facilitate workshops on disaster preparedness to equip residents for future challenges.
Editor: The article also mentioned Jangheung-gun’s support for civil servants’ families during the College Scholastic Ability Test. What does this say about the community’s broader commitment to its residents?
Dr. Han: It demonstrates a holistic approach to community welfare. Supporting families, especially during critical moments like exams, fosters a sense of belonging and support within the community. It shows that the local government recognizes the various challenges its citizens face, not just in times of disaster but in everyday life.
Editor: Dr. Han, thank you for your insights today. It appears that measures like the fee reductions in Jangheung-gun can create a ripple effect toward recovery and community support.
Dr. Han: Thank you! It’s a vital time for those communities, and thoughtful initiatives like these can profoundly impact their recovery journey.
Editor: This has been enlightening. Thank you, viewers, for tuning in. We’ll continue to keep you updated on how our communities are thriving despite the challenges they face.
