My task will be to help bring this significant project to a successful conclusion without unnecessary delays," said Dlouhá. She would like to support the quality of public space by organizing architectural competitions. The municipality estimates that the new urban plan could be ready within two years.

Brůna, who has been the city's chief architect since 2002, will have a contract with the city for consulting services until the end of March 2025. "It is necessary to maintain the continuity of the department. He will be invited to specific issues to help us with them," Záruba stated. According to him, Brůna's remuneration will be 700 crowns per hour with a limit of 350,000 crowns by the end of the contract.
