Mayor’s remarks:
1. Cases of local transmission have been reported in Tainan. Epidemic prevention, disaster prevention, crime prevention, and traffic control are all of great importance. I implore everyone to place an emphasis on work in these areas during Lunar New Year, and I thank you for sacrificing your time for the safety and health of Tainan’s residents.
2. The Public Works Bureau’s “Road Qualify Improvement Plan (Ministry of the Interior) 2.0—Road Improvement Construction Plan for Section 1, Jhongshan Road, Guanmaio District” is set to undergo item reductions and a budget expansion. I ask colleagues of the Public Works Bureau to discuss improvement plans with Secretary-general Ciou. The budget for the Public Works Bureau’s “Expansion Plan for City Highway 172 from Ansiliao section to Baihe District” totals at NTD $1.1 billion, none of which is subsidized by the Central Government. The Public Works Bureau should discuss this with Deputy Mayor Tai and determine how to secure funding from the Central Government.
