First, she aims to strengthen on-site administration under the mayor\u2019s direct responsibility. She plans to create a &#8220;Reconstruction Integrated Civil Complaints Officer&#8221; under the district mayor to handle maintenance project complaints in a one-stop manner, and to regularly hold &#8220;Mayor\u2019s On-Site Meetings&#8221; to immediately incorporate members\u2019 feedback into projects.<\/p>\n<p>Second, she promises swift designation of maintenance zones. For small-scale sites with fewer than 500 households, she will actively exercise the mayor\u2019s authority to designate zones and accelerate projects, while also working with Seoul mayoral candidate Wonoh Jeong to secure administrative support from the Seoul Metropolitan Government.<\/p>\n<p>Third, she will expand the deployment of maintenance project coordinators to all types of projects. Dedicated support systems will be established for redevelopment, reconstruction, Moa Town, and public maintenance, providing close support from the initial stages to move-in. She also plans to dispatch &#8220;Professional Maintenance Project Managers&#8221; under the Seoul Mayor to all maintenance zones.<\/p>\n<p>Fourth, she will build a maintenance project process management system. She plans to establish an &#8220;Integrated Permitting System&#8221; together with candidate Wonoh Jeong to shorten the period until groundbreaking, and to introduce a real-time management system for each stage of the project.<\/p>\n<p>Fifth, she will strengthen tailored practical competencies for associations. She intends to systematize practical training for association management, including accounting, legal affairs, and permits, and to enhance expertise through consulting tailored to each project type.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>      Hot Picks Today<br \/>\n      <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asiae.co.kr\/en\/article\/2026051510392392702\" title=\"About 100 Trillion Won at Stake... &quot;Samsung Strike Is an Unprecedented Opportunity&quot; as Prices Surge 20% [Taiwan Chip Column]\" class=\"thumb\" onclick=\"gtag( &#039;event&#039;, &#039;click&#039;, { &#039;event_category&#039; : &#039;V_\uc8fc\uc694\ub274\uc2a4&#039;, &#039;event_label&#039; : &#039;1\uc2ac\ub86f&#039; });\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1778967998_413_2026051416263163580_1778743590.jpg\" alt=\"About 100 Trillion Won at Stake... &quot;Samsung Strike Is an Unprecedented Opportunity&quot; as Prices Surge 20% [Taiwan Chip Column]\"\/><br \/>\n        About 100 Trillion Won at Stake&#8230; &#8220;Samsung Strike Is an Unprecedented Opportunity&#8221; as Prices Surge 20% [Taiwan Chip Column]<br \/>\n      <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kim stated, &#8220;The biggest concerns of members I met in the field were ultimately &#8216;speed&#8217; and &#8216;communication.&#8217; I will personally get involved as district mayor, breaking through bottlenecks and jump-starting stalled areas with rapid administration, so that I can restore smiles to our members.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>This content was produced with the assistance of AI translation  services.<\/p>\n<p class=\"txt_prohibition\">\u00a9 The Asia Business Daily(www.asiae.co.kr).
