When analyzing the types of people appointed as Yangju City's municipal administration innovation advisory committee members, human resources from outside the city were appointed rather than ex-officio city council members and human resources within Yangju City's jurisdiction. Six people were from the Gyeonggi Research Institute, three were from the design field, professors, current construction company directors, They were appointed to various professional positions, including company representatives.
In particular, what is unusual is that among the people who recommended committee members, there were 4 mayors, but Professor Y Seo Jeong-dae recommended as many as 9 people.
Accordingly, Mr. A, a former transition member for Yangju mayor, said, “Among the 50 municipal administration innovation advisory committee members, those who were concerned about Yangju municipal administration after Mayor Kang was elected last year were wiped out. The transition committee members no longer have a place in Yangju city administration. He said, “I am at a loss for words regarding the appointment of the City Administration Innovation Advisory Committee, which focused on personnel outside the district and professors rather than personnel within the district,” and added, “I am disappointed with the fairness of personnel within and outside the district.”
Yangju citizen B said, “There are people in the district with a lot of experience who have lived in the Yangju area for a long time. These people have been concerned a lot about the development of Yangju. He expressed regret, saying, “Of course, we need to hire professors and other professionals, but we should also have included people who contributed to the development of Yangju City.”
Meanwhile, Yangju City's Municipal Innovation Advisory Committee is expected to hold its first meeting in mid- to late September along with the appointment meeting.
