Recently, one of the issues that are significantly considered is to keep Changwon F3 car racing. In most existing studies, however, there is shortage of opinions for understanding the reactions of the host community. The question addressed in this paper is what are the underlying factors that affect which inhibitors are likely to be discussed by the host community for car racing. Survey collected from 299 participants in Changwon city were analyzed to test their reactions. Through the empirical study, several research findings emerged. The results indicate that (1) the event seeker, the drive seeker, and the hard internal seeker were significant discriminant factors to separate inhibitors from the host community, (2) the significant differences between the recognition of demographic characteristics and that of negative effects, (3) the significant level between cluster groups(overcontrolled, resilient, undercontrolled) and negative effects is found. The findings also provide implications for practice on several fronts, which is to understand the reaction of the host community to F3 car racing, and for the event planner to reduce complaints.

We are facing the era of multi-identities in which locals got emphasized, whereas nations'boundary are breaking off under the expansion of de-bounadarisim. In this trend, local autonomous governments are striving to have foreign competitiveness through reforming their administration, such as adopting management styles of companies. If the purpose of administration is set for developing 'the quality of residents' life', introducing 'design' into administration would be one of the best ways. By adopting this design concept, residents 'happiness index' will be increased so that residents' capability will be consolidated to contribute to the development of the local economy. The purpose of this study is to examine various cases of introducing 'design concept' into administration in local autonomous entities. All the methods of introducing design concept are analysed and the implementation methods are proposed. If local autonomous entities operate the design based administration proposed by this study, and if this is relevant to locals, it will create its unique local image and contribute to increasing 'the quality of residenfs life' as well.

The presence of shops necessary for everyday life is a factor that increases the satisfaction of residential environment. From the perspective of founders, establishing businesses with high needs of local residents is a factor that affects business success.

And it analyzes whether the formation of these businesses is consistent with the initial consumer needs of the new city. The purpose of this paper is to derive meaningful results that both the business founder and consumer can win-win. The current status of the life-friendly businesses and the needs of citizens were analyzed in the S city. As a results of analysis, the needs for education appears strongly at the early stage of urban development. And it shows a characteristic of being weakened to some extent with the passage of time.

The purpose of this study is to present policy implications for future urban regeneration projects by deriving factors that affect residents' life satisfaction by region. To this end, a survey was conducted and multiple regression analysis was conducted using the Changsin/Sungin-dong, Haebangchon, and Garibong-dong regions where the general type of neighborhood regeneration project of Seoul was conducted. As a result of the analysis, it was found that life satisfaction increased when autonomy among the local governance factors in Changsin/Sungin-dong and autonomy and network in Garibong-dong increased. When examining the factors of regional regeneration capacity for each region, in terms of local identity, landscape characteristics in all three regions had a significant effect on the life satisfaction of residents. In the case of local communities, it was found that the satisfaction with life of residents increased when individual competence in Changsin/Sungin-dong and participation capacity and relationship competence in Garibong-dong increased. In terms of local assets, natural and social assets in all three regions had a significant effect on the life satisfaction of residents.

본 연구의 목적은 산악지역의 돌발홍수에 대비한 경보발령을 위한 한계유량을 산정하는 것이다. 돌발홍수는 강우-유출관계가 비선형적이어서 기존의 선형 강우-유출 해석이 곤란하므로 비선형적 접근 방법이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 지형정보체계(GIS : Geographic Information System)를 이용하여 유역의 지형학적 특성인자와 GIUH 및 GCIUH의 매개변수를 산정함으로써, 유역특성자료의 불확실성을 감소시켰다. 이를 경보발령 체제가 기 설치 운영중인 단양군의 천동계곡에 적용하여 그 적합성을 판단하였다. 여기서, 경보발령을 위한 한계유량은 계곡의 수심이 위험수심(dangerous depth)이라고 판단한 0.5m이상이 될 때의 유량으로 정의하였고, 무강우가 30분간 지속되면 초기화 시키는 과정을 거쳤다. 그 결과 기존의 경보발령 체제와 비교하여 시간당 20mm의 강우량에 대해서는 경보를 발령하지 않으므로 기존에 잦은 경보발령에 의한 주민의 소음피해를 줄일수 있었으며, 시간당 100mm의 강우에 대해서는 2-3분 간격으로 경보를 발령하여 주민의 안전을 도모할수 있었다.

Residential streets play an important role not only as a Place for moving but also as a place for social interactions among urban residents. Social interactions among urban residents are critical factor to draw sense of confidence and communality, and community spirit from the residents. Social interactions among community residents, however, are getting restricted severely by automobile traffic in the residential area. This study shows that the level of social interactions among the residents decreases substantially as traffic volume increases in the area. Other daily activities such as relaxing. playing with children, exercising, and doing small works in the street which can caused social interactions among the residents are also decreased as the volume of automobile traffic increases. Residents living in the area of heavier traffic volume perceive more strongly that automobile traffic is the major reason which deters them from interacting socially each other.
