2. ￦3.3b in quake-resistance upgrades to public facilities
Province planning work on 60 structures

The provincial government will spend billions of won this year on improved earthquake engineering in public facilities.

It has earmarked nearly 3.3 billion won for assessing the earthquake resistance of 60 structures and making them more quake-proof. Among other locations, work will be done on the the provincial office, the Jeju Livestock Institute, and Jeju Starlight World Park. The funding comes in part from what the province collected through a disaster safety tax.

The provincial government is also trying to encourage the owners of private buildings to do the same, even though they are not required to do so. It reduces acquisition and property taxes on privately-held buildings that are equipped with quake-resistant features.

제주도, 공공기관 내진 보강사업 추진

지진에 취약한 공공기관에 대한 내진 보강 사업이 추진됩니다.

제주도는 올해 재난안전특별교부세 등 32억 7천 만 원을 투입해 도청과 축산진흥원, 별빛누리공원 등 공공기관 60여 개소를 대상으로 내진 보강 공사와 성능평가를 실시합니다.

현재 제주도는 내진 설계 의무 대상이 아닌 민간 건축물에서 내진 기능을 갖추면
인센티브로 취득세와 재산세를 감면하고 있습니다.
