#KNNNews #Gyeongnam #Geoje #Port #Tax #Unpaid [Anchor] A conflict is brewing between fishermen and a landowner who is blocking the road leading to a port in Geoje, Gyeongnam. However, it has been revealed that this port was built by Geoje City without the landowner's knowledge. The landowner, unable to tolerate the situation any longer, resorted to force, but Geoje City responded with a brazen attitude, demanding that the landowner donate the property to the city. Reporter Choi Hyeok-gyu reports. [Reporter] This is a makeshift pier in Geoje, Gyeongnam, established in 2004. A notice prohibiting entry is posted on one side where fishermen are working. "It turns out that both the dock and the road are on private land, so the landowner stepped forward to block them." "Twenty years ago, Geoje City built a wharf where boats can dock here, which is owned by the landowner, without even obtaining permission from the owner." The landowner has been demanding countermeasures from Geoje City for 20 years, but received no response. While Geoje City neglected management, trash began to pile up on the dock. Unable to tolerate it any longer, the landowner blocked part of the access road to the wharf earlier this year, and now, the inconvenience for fishermen who have been using the facility for over 20 years is growing. {Im Jeong-eun/Resident/ "Since the road is blocked, water trucks need to go down here, but they can't pass. As you can see from the slope, isn't it too difficult for the elderly to pull heavy loads up with carts?"} However, the solution Geoje City proposed is to have the landowner donate the property to the city. It amounts to demanding that the property be handed over entirely in response to protests regarding the infringement of property rights. The landowner Only after strong backlash did they step forward to seek other solutions. {Seong Du-seok / Head of Geoje City Port Management Team / "We will resolve the inconvenience currently experienced by fishermen as quickly as possible through an amicable agreement with the landowner."} However, in the meantime, as residents have filed a complaint against the landowner for obstructing passage, the conflict between the two sides is only deepening over the issue created by Geoje City.
