https://geoportal.kr-ustecky.cz/gs/zasady-uzemniho-rozvoje/
The requirements for ensuring the protection of the landscape and landscape character, are contained in the Principles
of Spatial Development of Ústecký Region especially in Chapter 1 - Determining the priorities of spatial planning of the
Ústecký Region to ensure the sustainability of territorial development, in the section: Tasks for spatial planning No.s 3,
14, 33.

"(17) In the specified, specific areas of the region, supporting the solution of their territorial problems, promoting forms
of a spatial, economic, and social development, meeting the needs of these territories, paying special attention to the
protection and the revitalisation of natural, landscape and heritage values."

The issue of landscape protection is also incorporated in Chapter 5 - Specification of territorial conditions of the concept
of protection and development of natural, cultural, and civilisational values of the region, in the sections:Tasks for
spatial planning Nos. 1, 9, and in Chapter 6 - Definition of target landscape characteristics. To specify the territorial
conditions for the protection and development of the cultural values of the region, many principles are set, of which the
essential tasks for spatial planning cited below are the most important for the nominated property:

(25) Take into account proposed protected areas: e.g., landscape heritage zones, urban heritage zones, rural heritage
zones, and archaeological and heritage reserves.

(26) Among the heritage values, also include documents of the industrial development of the region, search for and
protect suitable objects and areas of this type of values, monitor the possibilities of their use in the new condition.

(27) To protect and develop the values of the unique heritage landscape of the region, to focus attention on the
protection of the horizon lines of mountain massifs, landscape dominants, significant vantage points, and typical and
well-known views of settlements.

(31) To monitor the possibility of the restoration of historical phenomena: the recovery of vistas, dominants, the removal
52 of harmful elements of civilisation damaging the landscape and having inappropriate links to landscape or heritage
values.

The fragmentation of the landscape should be effectively prevented in the subsequent spatial planning documentation.
Emphasize and respect the need to protect the landscape and its landscape character. The principles of the Ústecký
Region and its amendments No. 1, 2 and 3, were approved by the Regional Council of the Ústecký Region in 08/2020.

Programmes of restoration for state-protected towns and cities with valuable urban structures are the essential
requirement for applications submitted by town or city governments to access the funding provided by the Ministry

in this process, and the renewal programme currently covers the entire territory of the component part 02 of the
nominated property.

The Strategic Plan of the town of Žatec
The Žatec Town Council formulated a multi-year conceptual document for the near future. This document includes
goals to be attained across the whole of the nominated property. Together with the Land-Use Plan of the town of Žatec,

No. 276/15 on 2 September 2015. It follows the preceding strategic document No. 123/08 of 2008. The strategic plan
nd
sets up the main trends of the town’s development in the following five to eight years, therefore, for the period 2015
to 2020, with prospects up to the year 2023.

The key areas described also include an area generally called "WORLD HERITAGE". There are specified strategic goals and
measures to support the nomination of the property for its inclusion on the World Heritage List and the sustainability
of cultural heritage values in the town. Many experts participated in the creation of the material, including most of the
