계획대상지는 충청남도 예산군 고덕면 대천리, 석곡리 일원으로 농업환경과 상업가로지역, 역사문화자원 등이 복합적으로 형성되어 있는 지역이다. 하지만 열악한 교통여건과 부족한 대표이미지로 인해 외부방문객들에게는 통과지역으로만인식되고 내부적으로는 면소재지임에도 불구하고 정비되지 않은 가로 환경과 지역주민들의 다양한 커뮤니티를 지원할수 있는 공공시설의 부재로 인해 갈수록 쇠퇴하고 있는 대표적인 농촌지역이라 할 수 있다. 최근 당진영덕고속도로개통과 고덕IC의 개설, 내포신도시로 충청남도청 이전 등 인근지역의 여건 변화로 인해 그동안 쇠퇴되었던 지역을다시 활성화시킬 수 있는 계기가 마련되었고 따라서 본 계획에서는 주변 여건 변화에 발맞춰 지역 환경을 개선하고대상지가 보유하고 있는 지역자원을 활용하여 통과지역으로서 인식되던 이미지를 개선함으로써 발전적인 지역 활성화 방안을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 이에 본 계획에서는 ‘경관정비’, ‘지역자원활성화’, ‘정주기반정비’를 계획전략으로 수립하여쾌적한 정주환경 및 도농복합 거점공간으로 조성하고자 계획내용을 수립하였다. 본 계획을 통해 그동안 낙후되고 노후화된지역의 공공시설 및 경관자원의 개선과 고유한 지역자원의 활용을 통해서 고덕면소재지 지역주민의 삶의 질이 향상되고지역경제가 활성화 될 것으로 기대된다.

The value and functionality of boundary barriers in rural villages have been neglected in the aspects as the buffer zone(boundary barrier) that links between the inside space(housing site) and the outside space(road). On this understanding, this study evaluated conservation value, economical efficiency and durability by the types and materials of the boundary barriers in rural village through Multi-attribute Decision Making. By applying to the current situations of boundary barriers on total 21 case study villages, each factor value was measured. And using Matrix Analysis Technique, the boundary barriers are classified into 4 types and the improvement ways for each type were proposed. As a result, the durability of boundary barriers in rural villages showed similarity value(more than 0.85 out of 1). But economical efficiency of those was low(less than 0.5 out of 1) and those functionalities were very lacking(about 0.3 out of 1). In the conclusion, the maintenance of boundary barriers in rural villages requires the policy that is able to complement conservation value and economical efficiency and is proper to the characteristic of each village. These renewable policies would contribute to the increase of the value of rural amenity as well as creation of economical and social value.

The aim of this study is to analyze the improvement of housing renewal project and suggest the conditions of rural housing environment filled with the resident's desire, requirements concerning about characteristics of a rural environment and temporal and social requirements. The project for improvement of rural housing environment has been executed in a few ways: reform of the rural housing environment and the development of territories for settlement of a desolate region. To analyze and assess the accomplishments, we considered codes and process related to the project for improvement of rural housing environment and analyzed present conditions and problems through many reference books and administrative data. According to these results, devices in future business for improvement of rural housing environment are as follows; It should required a rational allocation of working space, living space, cultural activity space suitable for rural area characteristics and changed into uniformed system in various projects governed by different institutions.

The problem of outdated and surplus facility-items in existing Rural Living Environment Renewal Program(RLERP) makes this study focus on restricting the range of facility sorts for the purpose of coㅁins with the changing rural living environment. In the four aspects of plan establishment, project implementation, comprehensiveness and linkage between programs, this study made an analysis of the existing RLERP that has 4-stage hierarchy, namely, Gun(county), Myun(primary administrative district), village and project site level Firstly, Myun and upper level policy programs fulfill the comprehensiveness and planning aspects, but have defects in the implementation and linkage aspects. Secondly, the village level programs satisfies more or less the four condition, but give rise to the problems of equity between the project target village and the non-target, and of generalization of the planning method applying to a specific village. At last, project level programs, controlled by several ministries, have defects in comprehensiveness and linkage aspects, exposing the sectoralism of central government. Above all, the existing RLERP has so many facility items, which have led to inefficient investment till now. Therefore, it's necessary that the environmental facilities should be selected(simultaneously reduced ), referring to following 5 criteria. (1) Exception of facilities relating to agricultural production. (2) Confined to public facilities to be constructed by government support. (3) Common-use facilities located in small town and below level area. (4) Consideration of not only the present need but also the future need of rural residents. (5) Reflection of a regional difference of mountain, plane and suburban area. Just 13 kinds of living environmental facilities are finally selected as the result of the selecting work, which can be an new alternative for RLERP. Concludingly, the selected facility items should be integrated into a designated project site by the prepared plan in order to enhance the efficiency of RLERP, investment and also to satisfy the four analytic aspects mentioned above.
