Running for Piráti a Fakt Brno TU!
Brno-střed needs more affordable housing, and in my view the city has to play an active role in that. I support building new municipal flats, renovating the existing housing stock and transparent rules for allocating them. At the same time, I'm against further privatisation of municipal flats. The housing stock is a long-term asset of the city and a tool of housing policy, not something we should gradually get rid of.
Hot summers show that greenery in the city centre isn't just a question of looks. Trees provide shade, cool their surroundings and help reduce the overheating of streets. That's why I want to protect existing greenery and, when streets and squares are renovated, always look for space for new trees and other green features. Green courtyards, rainwater management and green roofs should also be part of the solution. The goal is for Brno-střed to be a pleasant place to live even during ever warmer years.
Brno-střed is the natural centre of shopping, gastronomy and services. I want it to be a good place for people to do business. The town hall should set simple and predictable rules, communicate with businesspeople and not pile needless extra paperwork on them. At the same time, I want the lively centre to offer space to local shops, restaurants and services and not be just a backdrop from which ordinary life is gradually disappearing.
I'm Petr Springinsfeld, I work as a manager in finance and I'm a councillor in Brno-střed. In my work and in politics I meet people every day who are dealing with housing, planning for the future or the quality of services in the city, and I consider the concrete impact of public decisions on everyday life to be the most important part of local politics.
I try to combine liberal values with a practical approach. I don't want to push measures just because they sound good. I'm interested in whether they actually work, how much they cost and who they help. I'm running again because I want Brno-střed to be a modern, open and pleasant city district that doesn't make people's lives needlessly complicated and at the same time can take care of those who need its help.
