In Uherské Hradiště, the Štěpnice housing estate will undergo a 90 million CZK modernization focused on climate resilience and rainwater management.

Cultural and administrative renovations are progressing. In Znojmo, plans have been unveiled to convert a former post office into a modern library and community center. In Slovakia, Košice is implementing a new territorial plan to accommodate a projected population of 300,000, while Senica is launching a street art project at city boundaries. In Olomouc, the former Soviet army social center at the Černá cesta estate is slated for redevelopment into apartments and shops.
