Unlike the semi-public system of city buses, Seoul's townbus are operated on a private operating system, which is poor condition to the changes in the environment. Sales decreased due to a decrease in the number of passengers due to COVID-19 and a demand for conversion due to the advent of competitive transportation methods, and the financial support of Seoul Metropolitan Government is continuously increasing. In this study, to analyze the characteristics of townbus operated by a private operating system, the townbus sales and surplus companies were analyzed by what factors were affected. For the analysis data, townbus financial statements of Seoul in 2018 were used, and townbus sales and surplus companies were applied as dependent variables, and townbus operation system, satisfaction survey, humanities and social variables, and subway and public bicycle characteristics were applied as independent variables. As a result of the analysis, the sales is affected by operating hours per vehicle, in-vehicle safety, the number of households, the number of elderly people, and public bicycle variables, and surplus companies are affected by in-vehicle safety, reliability, and public bicycle variables. In particular, public bicycles, a competitive means of transportation, had an impact on industry sales, and the townbus business environment is expected to become more difficult as time goes by. The industry is seeking self-rescue measures, and Seoul is required to strengthen financial support so that townbus can operate stably.

도시의 개발을 통한 발전방향은 지역별 기술력을 바탕으로 시대의 흐름과 문화, 경제, 도시정책 등에 따라 다양하다. 특히, 워터프론트는 도시와 가장 근접한 친수공간으로 단어자체에 도시'라는 개념이 포함되어 있다. 즉 도시가 큰 강이나 바다, 호수 등과 접하고 있는 공간을 말한다. 우리나라는 도시계획차원에서 도시 수변공간(urban waterfront)으로 설정하고, 레크레이션, 공원, 경관형성, 환경오염 저감, 정서함양, 생산 등의 다양한 기능을 갖고 있는 매우 공공성이 높은 도시지역의 주요 공간지역으로 의미를 부여하고 있다. 그러나 워터프론트를 개발계획을 수립하는 과정에서 교통계획, 홍수 등의 재해시설, 환경 등에 대한 평가가 제대로 이루어지지 않고 있으며(한국일보, 2011), 개발 계획 추진은 주민 공감대 형성, 사업타당성 검토 없는 '밀어부치기식' 개발 지상주의로 전락하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 국내 워터프론트 개발사업 계획을 추진하고 있는 지역으로 인천 송도지역과 부산의 수산시장으로 유명한 자갈치시장 일대의 개발계획, 마산 도시재생지구의 항만 재개발계획 사례를 분석하여 개발계획의 문제점과 언론상에 비춰지는 개발의 현 실태, 지역개발의 효과 등에 대한 시사점을 도출하였다. 사례지역을 비롯한 대부분의 기존 워터프론트 개발은 경제성을 위해 규모가 큰 상업시설 위주로 개발이 이루어지고 있으며, 주거시설이나 문화시설을 비롯한 다양한 시설의 구성이 부족한 특수성을 갖추어 가고 있다. 또한, 기존의 유휴공간을 재개발하면서 도시와의 관계를 제대로 설정하지 못하여 도시와 분리된 폐쇄공간으로 개발이 이루어지고 있으며, 도시구조에 통합되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 무엇보다 워터프론트 개발사업에 관계된 여러 집단들, 즉 중앙정부, 지방자치단체, 개발주체, 시민 등 이들 사이에 합의 도출의 어려움이 많아 좋은 계획안이 무산되거나 사업이 지체 혹은 중단되는 사례가 많았다. 워터프론트 개발에 대한 지역민사회의 충분한 공감대가 결코 형성되지 않았음에도 오히려 요식적 여론수렴 절차를 강조하고 있으며, 친환경적 도시개발이라는 사업의 목적과 맞지 않는 계획이 많았다. 특히, 관련 사업 중 항만재개발사업에는 막대한 초기 투자비가 소요되어 재개발사업을 위한 자금의 확보가 어려운 경우가 많이 있었으며, 도시의 장기발전계획과 통합된 장기적인 개발전략이 필요한데 이를 소홀히 하는 경우가 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 기존 워터프론트 개발계획의 문제점과 향후 정비계획이 추구해야 하는 친수구역의 관리방법, 주민참여 방안의 대안제시가 이루어 질 수 있었으며, 이를 바탕으로 국내 친수공간 정비계획을 재 고찰 할 수 있는 기회가 되었으면 한다.

Recently multifaceted advantages of urban agriculture are emerging in civil society and related policy arena such as food safety, environment, and social welfare. This study tried an estimation of residents' willingness-to-pay for urban farming to examine feasibility of using part of urban green infrastructure as urban farm (e.g. allotment garden). A survey targeting Bundang and Dontan new-town residents was carried out and willingness-to-pay for urban farm rental was estimated by contingent valuation method (CVM). The estimated rent was cross-checked with the rental cost and travel cost paid by hobby farm users in the outskirt of metropolitan area. The result of this study showed that the potential demand for urban farming is ample if urban farms or allotment gardens are planned within new development areas. That is, 72.6 percent of new-town residents questioned had intention of using allotment garden within urban parks and green spaces. Estimated willingness-to-pay for renting a plot, $16.5m^2$ of urban farm, was about 236,000 won(KRW), which is higher than rent for a plot of allotment garden which is located out of city. Variables which were statistically significant to estimated willingness-to-pay for urban farming were sex, age, and occupation of respondents, among other explanatory socio-demographic variables, while expected frequency and duration of visit to urban farm were insignificant.

Seoul Boramae Park was opened on May 5, 1986, after the Republic of Korea Air Force Academy relocated to Cheongju City in 1985. This study aims to examine the birth and evolution of Seoul Boramae Park and diagnose the park's value being transformed from the former site of the Air Force Academy. Policy reports and newspaper data were analyzed as a research method, focusing on Seoul public records. The study results are as follows. First, Seoul Boramae Park is a large-scale park created before the policy for parks on relocated sites we enacted. Second, Seoul Boramae Park has historical value as an urban park where memories and traces of the Air Force Academy overlap. Third, Seou Boramae Park contributed to regional change by promoting the public value of parks created on the relocated sites with an urban planning method. Seoul Boramae Park has implications for Korean landscape history as a case of securing large green areas in Seoul and presenting its function and roles as a park created on a relocated site.

Public policy responses to the digital/information revolution and the micro-economic reforms that it facilitates have inspired exploration of the scope for local government implementation of digital spatial data handling(DSDH) of information relating to, among other things, asset inventory, environmental and utility management, address management, and planning. The results from these explorations are such that few doubt the value of bringing the public policies to practice, but diffusion rate and pattern of the approaches demonstrated by the scoping experiments will reflect institutional/cultural matters, indicators of the relative significance of which might be at least partly predicted from appraisal of case studies. This argument is exemplified by reference to case studies in adoption of DSDH by local government organizations in Korea and in Australia.

The policy introduced recently in order to promote small-size reconstruction housing projects for rehabilitating downtown area consists of aged multi houses has been little practiced, as preferential provisions for such projects are more likely applicable for large projects. Several expert interviews and surveys were conducted to find efficient clauses to overcome the problems and their relative weights. As the results, it is revealed that 'relation of floor area ratio' and 'relaxation of building height limit criteria' are the most effective whereas 'purchasing and operating of residents' common facilities with public fund' is little. The study results would be a great interests for public institutions to rebuild aged housing area without destroying local communities and to provide socially disadvantaged class with rental housing at the same time.

Recently, there has been a trend designing a consistent and uniform regional identity in South Korean provinces as demonstrated by efforts in Chungcheongnam buk-Do. The motivating goals have been to establish an identity for local residents, provide voluntary services, achieve higher value-added business, introduce new management strategies, and establish a local brand through the exportation of local specialties. The by-products of these goals when accomplished include: maintaining a consistent policy, securing governmental economic efficiency of the province, characterizing local culture and improving quality of life. In this study, I tried to find out whether a local logo which is associated with a city plays a core role in the city's identity by comparing each symbol's shape, color and other components which are ways of expressing its meaning. In this respect, I analyzed the type of the Chungcheongnam buk-Do's symbol marks (30) and tried to suggest the desirable direction in developing symbol marks.

Particulate matter(PM) is one of the leading causes of lung cancer. Recognizing its considerable risk to human health, people change their behaviors when a concentration level of PM is high. The impact of particulate matter on urban activities may vary depending on the lasting days of PM and PM matter alerts. In addition, the level of averting behavior may vary depending on the types and physical characteristics of urban activities and the degree of vulnerability to PM among people. Although the way people respond to PM may vary depending on these various factors, previous research evidence on this is very insufficient. Therefore, this study multilaterally analyzed the impact of PM on the urban activities in Jongno-gu, one of the CBD areas of Seoul. For this, we linked SKT's mobile phone signal data to land use data to extract the daily number of active people by urban activity types and ages. According to multiple regression analysis, the averting behavior varies depending on the type of urban activity, the physical characteristics of the place of activity(inside and outdoor), the lasting days of PM, PM alerts and the age of people. The results of this study can be used as basic data to policy makers who establish policies for adapting to air pollution policies by providing various effects of PM on the urban activities.

Seoul metropolitan has established a vision as 'Healthy water-cycle city' to resolve urban water-environmental deterioration. And it established administrative structure to expand Low Impact Development (LID) facilities to recover aggravated water-cycle and water-environment. Therefore, various LID facilities are constructed and operated, however, benefit analytic plans for systematic valuation are insufficient. In this study, to analyze economic, environmental and social benefits of LID facilities, contents for benefit analysis were selected and categorized as water, energy, air quality and climate changes. As a result of quantification and valuation to the beneficial effects, LID facilities showed the total benefit as 1,191~3,292 won/yr. Characteristics of benefit distribution by analysis contents were various reflecting functional characteristics of each LID facility (Water: 30~90%, Energy: 4~44%, Air quality: <1~2%, Climate change: 5~22%). As a result of Triple Bottom Line analysis, economic benefit showed the greatest portion as 75~90%. As further studies, suggested benefit assessment plans for each LID facility should be applied to inter-connected LID systems on complex-scaled area, and synergy effects by various LID systems would be evaluated such as prevention of heat island and flood disasters.

The industrial areas including large industrial complexes formed by the process of the growth-oriented industrialization in the past have been attributed to worsening the urban competitiveness of cities due to their infrastructure shortages and aging. Government-led regeneration projects for old industrial complexes have been implemented on a trial basis, but there is a problem with applying a uniform regeneration planning to all the regional industrial complexes with different circumstances and physical environments. In this context, this study diagnosed the social conditions and physical characteristics of the Sasang industrial area in the city of Busan formed by private-led projects in the past and then tried to suggest its regeneration directions. The study area was characterized as its weakening industrial function, infrastructure shortage, and increasing development pressure. Based on these regional characteristics, the regeneration directions were suggested. In the planning phase, pubic-led infrastructure expansion is first needed and urban renewal needs to be applied to some areas designated as priority maintenance areas. In the implementation phase, stepwise projects are required in the medium to long term and it is important to build upon the consensus with private companies through establishing collaborative governance.
