Olomouc - The development company Office Park Šantovka, which plans to build the 75-meter-high Šantovka Tower next to the historic center of Olomouc, has filed a lawsuit against the Olomouc City Hall due to the recently approved zoning plan. The zoning plan actually prohibits the construction of the high-rise building and other planned buildings in its vicinity, writes today's regional edition of Mladá fronta Dnes (MfD).
    "Yes, we have filed the lawsuit. We will not comment further on this," said the spokesperson for the Šantovka Tower project, Juraj Aláč. The new zoning plan within the protective zone of the urban monument reserve has set new height limits into which the planned buildings will not fit. The lawyer for the development company argues that the city leadership has been aware of the heights of the planned buildings since 2008 and that they expressed support for these plans on the condition of "high architectural quality."
    Olomouc Mayor Martin Major (ODS) told reporters after the zoning plan was approved that the investor Office Park Šantovka does not have problems with the zoning plan, but with the protection of the historical part of Olomouc. The construction of high-rise buildings in the protective zone of the monument reserve has been prohibited by the Ministry of Culture, which was then reflected in the zoning plan.
    The construction of the high-rise building Šantovka Tower, which involves entrepreneur Richard Morávek, has numerous opponents as well as supporters. With its 75 meters, Šantovka Tower would share the position of the second tallest building in Olomouc with the town hall. Some experts, along with heritage protectors, oppose its construction, claiming that it would damage the skyline of the historic center of Olomouc. According to the investors, the skyline will not be disrupted.
