Running for VIZE PRO OPAVU
Opava must ensure that municipal sports facilities are barrier-free and offer equal conditions for all children, clubs and the public. Sports infrastructure should be used to the full and fairly, so that everyone has the chance to train, develop and get actively involved. The aim is to create an open sports system where getting into sports facilities is simple, fair and accessible to everyone without distinction.
Pedestrians, parents with prams, seniors and children are among the most vulnerable road users. It's essential that the city of Opava ensures an environment where they can move along pavements without worry, without obstacles and without the risk of colliding with cyclists or scooters. Pavements must be a clearly defined space for pedestrians, not a place where different types of traffic mix. This requires not only adjustments to infrastructure but also consistent checks and enforcement of the rules by the municipal police and other responsible authorities. Safety in Opava must be built on mutual respect. Just as we expect cyclists, scooter riders and drivers to follow the rules and protect pedestrians, pedestrians must also respect the rules of moving on the road.
An open town hall means regular dialogue with citizens, not just one-off events. People need clear and understandable information, the chance to ask questions and to be heard. Just as important is how we treat each other: with respect, consideration and an effort to solve things together. Opava can work as a city where people feel involved and where they cooperate, because that opens up new possibilities for how to function as a mature society and carry out much better ideas than has been the case so far.
As a PR specialist and head youth coach, every day I move among people, projects and communities that need clear communication, fair conditions and respect. I lead children to think, compete and cooperate, just as I work with the public to make the city work openly and understandably. I love history, racket sports and quiz competitions. My name is Martin Rell and Opava is the place where I want to help move things forward.
