공공시설로서의 골프장 재생에 관한 연구- 경기도내 골프장을 중심으로 -

Abstract

In 2013, the Act of National Territory Planning and Use was amended that the sports facility would be recognized as the infrastructure of urban planning only when it has the public necessity. Since then, it has been difficult not only to construct new private golf courses, but also to change minor parts in most of private golf courses even though they are confirmed or constructed as urban planning facilities legally before 2013. Based on the research on renewing a golf course as a public facility, we come to the conclusion that the legal system related with golf course renewing needs to be improved as follows: Firstly, the criteria for the sports facility whose public necessity is approved under the Act of National Territory Planning and Use need to be extended and applied to the public golf courses charging affordable fees. Through improvements, the golf course having public necessity will be approved through the urban planning board’s deliberation in accordance with the procedures of urban planning facility determination. Secondly, even if it is possible that existing golf courses are classified as the urban planning facility, the related law or regulations are required to be amended to ensure small scale developments possible under the condition of minor changes of the present urban management plan. Thirdly, it is necessary to simplify permit and approval procedures for extension of golf courses which are determined as part of the District Unit Plan. When changes in business plan of the registered sports facility business is approved under the Sports Facilities Act, the commencement and completion of the golf course construction under the related laws and regulations might be unified by extending the constructive agreement regulations such as development permits. Fourthly, it is also proposed that the existing golf course to be determined as urban planning facilities could be easily converted into a tourism resort regulated by the District Unit Plan, through establishing new transitional provisions. Based on the detailed research on deregulation for renewing current golf courses, the golf course business could contribute not only to development of local economy and job creation in the time of when the economy grows slowly but also to health improvement in the ageing society as an effective means.
