In Děčín, citizens selected winning projects for the ‘Tvoříme Děčín’ initiative, with the top-voted proposal focusing on renovating public spaces, paths, and benches in Bažantnice, Kvádrberk, and Chmelník. Other selected projects include forest furniture, cycling paths, and expanded recreational areas for children. Each top project carries an estimated cost of approximately 750,000 CZK, pending formal approval by the city council.
