,
, ” The Ministry of Science and ICT announced that the amendment to the ‘Special Act on the Cultivation of Research and Development Special Zones’ will be promulgated on the 14th and will take effect on August 15.”,
,
, ‘ According to the amendment, the floor area ratio for research, education, and commercialization facilities zones will increase from 30% to 40%, while the building coverage ratio will increase from 150% to 200%.’,
,
, ‘ The need for increased building density has been continuously raised as special zones are densely populated with universities, research institutes, and other institutions, making new developments difficult.’,
,
, ‘ In addition, starting from this day, the process for changing special zones will be simplified, and the range of allowable buildings by purpose zone within the special zone will be expanded.’,
,
, ‘ Minor changes that affect less than 10% of the area of special zone development projects can now be made without consultation with the relevant central administrative agencies, or without going through deliberation and resolution by the Research and Development Special Zone Committee.’,
,
, ‘ Furthermore, financial institutions, electric vehicle charging stations, tennis courts, and other sports facilities will be allowed in the education, research, and commercialization facility zones within the special zone, while data centers will be added to the industrial development zones.’,
