[Reporter Chen Enhui/Taoyuan Report] The 918 Taitung earthquake shook the ceiling of the badminton hall of the Bade National Sports Center. The People's Party Taoyuan mayor candidate Lai Xiangling and Taoyuan parliamentarian candidate Huang Chengjun once again targeted the quality and lack of many public works in Taoyuan City today. He raised questions and questioned the credibility of Taoyuan Mayor Zheng Wencan's five-star evaluation. He thought that if Mayor Zheng did not take responsibility and continued to hand it over to Zheng Yunpeng, how could the public accept it?

Lai Xiangling promised that after taking office as mayor, "all public works will be re-examined within five years. If there is an improper increase in the budget, relevant personnel will be investigated according to law." The city hall that will start work and cut the ribbon.

Lai Xiangling said that the quality of public works in Taoyuan City, from Taoyuan and Bade Sports Center to the underground parking lot of Pingzhen, has industrial safety problems, disasters and poor construction quality, which greatly reduces the public's so-called five-star governance and is unbearable in the face of verification. One blow, take the Taoyuan National Sports Center swimming pool as an example. It has not been repaired in the past two years. The repair budget has increased from more than 600,000 yuan to more than 20 million yuan. There was a problem with the bidding process, and even the funding for Bade's Beijing Cloud project rose from 800 million to 1.4 billion, and no one has been responsible so far.

Huang Chengjun also said that the city government only prepared a budget of 15.2 million yuan for "urgent repairs" after the completion of the swimming pool at the Taoyuan National Sports Center. The emergency situation has made it impossible to handle it through public bidding.” The city government again held a public tender of more than 20.24 million yuan to repair the swimming pool on September 20. From the completion, inspection and repair, the cost of repairing has skyrocketed. The city government should make it clear and inform the public of the truth. .

Lai Xiangling said that in addition to the problems in Taoyuan and the Bade Sports Center, the city government still has a number of public works flaws, including 153 deficiencies such as wall deterioration in the Dayan Fire Brigade's building over the past year, and only 41 have been improved; Pingzhen Cultural Park The construction of the underground parking lot started in 2018. On April 30, 2020, one death and two injuries collapsed. The work resumed in November of the same year, but it was not completed and opened after the design and construction was changed. After the heavy rain in August, the structure floated up by 45 cm. The construction unit urgently installed 79 ground anchors and grouted 15 parking spaces to increase the weight. However, an additional budget of more than 92 million yuan was also added.

Lai Xiangling believes that the city government has not been held accountable for this project in the Taoyuan Sports Center. Although the contractor has closed down, whether to continue to pursue compensation or not, who will decide the procurement process that has been wrongly evaluated at the beginning, the time delay has caused the budget to skyrocket, making her I had to give Mayor Zheng Wencan a "thumbs up" and called on Mayor Zheng Wencan, who has only two months left in his term, to solve the municipal problems he created, and to make it clear to the citizens, don't leave the mess to the next one, and also Please do your duty as a mayor, and don't just think about helping Zheng Yunpeng in the election for the continuation of his regime.

People's Party Taoyuan mayoral candidate Lai Xiangling (middle) and Taoyuan member candidate Huang Chengjun appealed to the public to open the door to public works such as the collapsed ceiling of the Bade National Sports Center and the Taoyuan National Sports Center's swimming pool that was damaged and not repaired for two years. See clearly with big eyes and let serious people supervise the city hall.
