MMR wants to deprive Prague of its own building regulations
 |
"The ministry has been dealing with Prague's building regulations for two years. The previous amendment was unworkable, which is why the ministry decided to suspend it. If Prague addresses our objections and it passes notification, then it will have its revitalized building regulations. However, if the regulations are not adopted by March 2016, then the minister has already stated several times that she will revoke this authority from Prague. The building code must respond to this," said Kryński. According to him, MMR would additionally turn to the court to completely annul Prague's building regulations.
"If MMR eliminates Prague's possibility of having an exemption from the national decree and thereby forces Prague to adhere to national rules, it would not only thwart all work on the amendment of Prague's building regulations (PSP), but it would also contribute to the destabilization of the entire legal environment," declared Deputy Stropnický. According to him, the PSP amendment is to be effective from January 1 next year.
"The idea that the PSP amendment will come into effect on January 1 and will only last for half a year, and then it will be annulled by the building code amendment, is something that no one wants. However, the ministry has already shown that it will not hesitate to intervene in the powers of local government, such as suspending the effectiveness of regulations," added Stropnický.
The situation hinted at by developers frightens them. They point out that the situation in the capital is different from other cities, whether in terms of population density or the existence of the metro.
"According to general regulations, construction in Prague is not possible; we have tried. It will be a disaster, there will be no construction for several years. This does not only concern private investors, but everyone. Even Prague will not be able to build anything," fears Marcel Soural, the general director of Trigema.
Prague's building regulations have sparked a heated debate in Prague for several months. The effectiveness of the original regulations was ultimately suspended by the Ministry for Regional Development in January due to objections. This followed media disputes triggered by the advertising lobby concerning the regulation of advertising that the regulations imposed. The ministry justified the annulment of the regulations by stating that they have formal deficiencies and lack notification from the European Commission. Last week, Prague's council approved an amendment to these regulations, which addresses all of the ministry's objections.
