The five largest Czech cities, Prague, Brno, Ostrava, Pilsen and Liberec, have jointly published the documentary Four City Articles.

The four main requirements are the independence of cities in spatial planning, maintaining the validity of Prague building regulations, the possibility to complete already developed spatial and regulatory plans and greater powers for municipalities.
"The requirements are based on practical experience of municipalities and their professional institutions with the administration and development of cities. We are now finalizing them in the form of a paragraph wording as comprehensive "modules" for selected parts of the proposed law,"
said Petr Hlaváček, 1st Deputy Mayor of the Capital of the City of Prague for spatial planning.
