A Sudeten lawyer wrote that in Ústí nad Labem, the plan of the One Ústí party to abolish the city districts has caused a stir. According to him, the party gained an absolute majority and did not discuss the intention before the elections. The author stated that he understands the reason for this approach and mentioned comments from people who said they would have voted for the party had they known about the plan. He linked the abolition of districts to the debate on merging municipalities. According to him, the Czech Republic has 6,258 municipalities, which is the highest number in Europe per capita. For comparison, he mentioned Belgium with 11.8 million inhabitants and 581 municipalities, Portugal with 10.6 million and 308 municipalities, Sweden with the same population and 290 municipalities, and Greece with 10.4 million inhabitants and 332 municipalities. He noted that the arrangements in Portugal and Greece differ slightly. According to him, Denmark had 99 municipalities with 6 million inhabitants and the Netherlands had 342 municipalities with 19 million. Hungary had about half and Austria a third of the Czech number of municipalities, he wrote. With exaggeration, he added that based on these examples, it might seem that these are countries where people suffer and municipalities do not prosper. He also addressed the number of city districts: out of 26 statutory cities, according to him, only seven have districts. He did not include Liberec in this count, which he marked as a city without internal divisions, except for Vratislavice nad Nisou. According to the author, Opava has eight urban parts formed by municipalities that joined it. It has a total of 7,000 inhabitants, while the rest of the city, approximately 47,600 people, has no urban part. He labeled Opava as the only smaller urban unit with districts other than Ústí nad Labem. He noted that Liberec, Hradec Králové, České Budějovice, and Olomouc do not need districts; he also described them as cities with good living potential, and some of them as wealthier. The author concluded that, according to him, people would fare better if municipalities and city districts were abolished. #obce #ÚstíNadLabem #politika #obce (translated)
