Abstract It is very urgent to increase the supplies for the elderly facility because of the rapid population growing of elders in our country. But, if we depend on the only new building for them, it will take a lot of time and cause to bring economic problem. So, this study proposed the activating plan to increase the supplies of the elderly facility through using the existing unused regional buildings. The results of this study were as follows. At first, it suggests the deregulation of National Land Planning and Utilization Act for location of the elderly facility in the residential-only district. The second, the simplification of building permit procedures for the conversion of building use were suggested. The last, it suggests the need of the financial support and the design guideline for the remodeling of existing building.
