Chungnam Provincial Council, 2025 Budget Cut by 8.16448 Billion Won

The Chungnam Provincial Council Budget Settlement Special Committee (hereinafter referred to as the Budget Settlement Special Committee) announced that it had finally cut 8.16448 Billion Won after reviewing the 2025 Chungcheongnam-do Budget and Fund Management Plan totaling 11.7671 trillion Won from the 9th to the 11th.

This cut was 398 million Won from 4 cases under the Planning and Economy Committee in the general account, 650 million Won from 3 cases under the Administration and Culture Committee, 6.0635 billion Won from 19 cases under the Health, Welfare and Environment Committee, 500 million Won from 1 case under the Agriculture, Fisheries and Oceans Committee, and 550 million Won from 2 cases under the Construction and Fire Committee. In the special account, 100 million Won was cut from 1 case under the Planning and Economy Committee.

The major reductions include a reduction of 100 million won in the Chungnam Core Data Construction and Operation Project, 100 million won in the Provincial Policy Academic Research Service Fee (Pool), 500 million won in the Office and Official Residence Facility Fee, 100 million won in the Chungnam Cultural Heritage Special Exhibition, 795 million won in the Daycare Center Expansion Project, 1.495 billion won in the Wangam Reservoir Exploration Trail and Mandarin Duck Habitat Creation Project, 660 million won in the Physical Recycling Pilot Project for Waste Plastic, and 500 million won in the Intercity Bus Management Service Improvement Support Project, which were partially reduced due to overestimation.

In addition, the Barrier-Free Sharing Trail Creation Project was completely cut due to a review of the project, the Natural Recreation Forest Management Project was partially reduced due to the delay in the timing, and the Agricultural School Training Center Support Project was completely cut due to the non-selection in the public offering.

Chairman Park Jeong-sik (Asan 3, People Power Party) emphasized, “We will respect the preliminary review of the standing committee, but the Special Committee on Budget and Accounts decided to push forward with projects that are absolutely necessary for the residents, and boldly cut some unnecessary projects,” and “Please make efforts to ensure that they are executed quickly and substantively for the safety and comfort of the residents.” Meanwhile, this budget plan is scheduled to be finalized at the 4th plenary session of the 356th regular session to be held on the 16th.
