– Necessity of conversion of urban planning required by the changes of the times such as low birth rate

– Comprehensive plan tailored to each region at the provincial level… Strategic planning with spatial alternatives

– Establishment of a ‘Gyeongnam-type space policy’ plan centered on the lives of provincial residents

 

As a 20-year mid- to long-term plan to respond to social and economic changes such as population decline and low growth, Gyeongnam-do is promoting the 'Establishment of Gyeongnam-type Urban Policy Master Plan' for the entire region of Gyeongnam-do.

 

In this service, Gyeongsangnam-do plans ▲ a comprehensive plan that combines strategic planning and spatial planning ▲ a future strategic plan centered on the lives (values) of provincial residents ▲ a regionally customized plan including agriculture, mountain and fishing villages ▲ an actionable plan that reflects plans for each major sector. A solution will be presented.

 

In detail, a spatial review will be added to the sectoral policy plan established by sector, and the strategic aspect and spatial planning (metropolitan city planning) will be integrated. Establish goals for each sector, such as economy/industry, housing, transportation/infrastructure, culture/tourism, etc., focusing on the lives (values) of citizens, break away from a uniform urban planning system centered on large cities, and utilize regional characteristics and resource competitiveness We plan to increase the plan. The plan is to establish an actionable plan by linking spatial alternatives and time-specific plans in the fields of industry, economy, culture, and tourism.

 

 

◇ Transformation of urban planning required by the changing times

 

Urban planning is significantly affected by recent internal and external environmental changes.

 

The social and economic problems of declining population and low growth are global issues. In Korea, population problems due to low birth rate and aging population as well as population concentration in large cities and decline in small and medium-sized cities are also emerging.

With the concentration of education, medical care, industry, and jobs in the metropolitan area intensifying, there are high voices calling for urban planning to adapt to the changing times.

 

The purpose of urban planning is to provide good public services to citizens by increasing the efficiency of the city's land use and preventing abuse of public goods.

 

Even in the 「National Land Planning and Utilization Act」, urban planning is defined as 'planning for spatial structure and development direction', and as a basic principle, 'optimal living environment applying new technological changes and responses to low birth rates and population aging' offer 'offer'.

 

Accordingly, the 8th civil election Gyeongnam Provincial Government plans to establish an urban policy plan that responds to social and economic changes and reflects a new paradigm for cities as an implementation plan for the main task of 'strengthening Gyeongnam urban policy planning function'.

 

 

◇ Current urban planning problems

 

In the existing urban and county master plans (hereafter referred to as urban master plans), the aspects of regulation and management were prioritized in preparation for the external expansion of the city based on the high-growth era.

 

This is a comprehensive plan and space composition that encompasses sectoral policies and plans established in each field, such as economy and industry, housing, transportation and infrastructure, environment and energy, and society, culture and welfare, in the integrated aspect of environment, economy and society. It was operated somewhat differently from the establishment guideline that the government should have the aspect of a policy plan to establish a 'strategy in which local governments should selectively focus their administrative capacity to achieve this'.

 

Rather than planning development strategies by analyzing the regional characteristics and resource competitiveness of each local government, they were often planned with a focus on uniform urban development and external expansion. did

 

If these are adjacent regions, there are some cases where administrative power and budget are wasted due to wasteful competition or war of nerves between the regions, and it is difficult for individual local governments to prepare all alternatives.

 

 

◇ Why 'Gyeongnam-type urban policy master plan'?

 

In order to overcome the problems mentioned above, urban planning goes beyond the regulation of only 'use zone/district/region' on a flat surface and develops strategic plans, action plans, and execution plans that reflect the characteristics of each city, agricultural, mountain, and fishing village. function should have

 

Various strategic plans such as 'Jinju and Sacheon Aerospace Industry Cluster' and 'Southern Coast Island Highway connecting Geoje-Tongyeong-Namhae', which will be promoted through cooperation between local governments beyond individual local governments, are needed.

 

Accordingly, Gyeongsangnam-do proceeded with the provincial level 'Gyeongnam-type Urban Policy Master Plan', which was established for the first time in a metropolitan area, in line with the main task of Gyeongsangnam-do Administration Park Wan-soo, 'strengthening the planning function of Gyeongnam urban policy'.

 

The establishment of this master plan was achieved by adding space planning to the 'strategy' to solve major issues and the 'policy' to achieve goals, as well as adjustments for overlapping infrastructure and competitively promoted development plans in individual cities and counties. It is expected to become a 'Gyeongnam-type space policy' unique to Gyeongsangnam-do, which is further developed.
