The Gwachon Citizens' Hall parking lot, operated by the Gwachon Urban Corporation, has received re-certification as a 'Crime Prevention Excellent Facility' following an on-site evaluation by the Gwachon Police Station.
According to the corporation, this certification will be maintained for two years, from September 11, 2026, to September 10, 2028.
The 'Crime Prevention Excellent Facility' certification is awarded by the police after a comprehensive review of the facility's management and operational systems, surveillance environment, access control, and safety measures to ensure it meets specific crime prevention standards.
The Gwachon Citizens' Hall parking lot has continued to uphold its certification since it was first awarded in 2022, following evaluations in 2024 and this year, consistently monitoring its safety management system.
The recent evaluation focused on the location of emergency call buttons and their visibility for users.
During the assessment, the Gwachon Police also suggested improvements related to user safety, including checks on emergency call transmission equipment, painting of disabled parking spaces and walkways, placement of reflective mirrors, and lighting conditions in the underground parking area.
The corporation plans to review the necessity and priority of each suggested improvement based on the police's evaluation and will implement them gradually.
A corporation official stated, "This re-certification allowed us to reassess the safety management status of the parking lot."
He added, "We will review the points raised during the evaluation and continuously improve necessary areas to maintain a safer and more convenient parking environment for citizens."
