For example, for so-called simple buildings, the permit will be issued within 30 days from the date of application. For other constructions, the building authority will have to assess the permit within 60 days from the date of application. The building authority will be able to extend the deadline, but in both cases only by 60 days. - If the builder fails to submit binding opinions of the authorities concerned, the building authority will request them itself, without asking the builder to provide them or stopping the building procedure. - The principle of appeal is introduced in the assessment of appeals against decisions of the building authority. If the building authority does not uphold an appeal against its decision, the appeal will be considered by the superior building authority. The file will no longer be returned to the first instance building authority. - The builder will be able to ask the building authority for preliminary information, in particular on the aspects according to which the building authority will assess the application for a planning permission decision and under which conditions the application can be granted. - The new Act 148/2023 Sb.on the Single Environmental Opinion, which is under the responsibility of the Ministry of the Environment, introduces the Single Environmental Opinion (SEA), which will be issued as a binding opinion.

Decree on documentation of buildings; · 130/2024 Coll. Decree establishing municipal building authorities. 3. Draft Act on the Administration
of Building Information, Building and Built Environment Information Models and on Amendments to Certain Acts The purpose of the draft law (in the comments procedure until 6 June 2024) is to create an information base for the economical and efficient management of construction and the management and development of the built environment. The management of a building is understood as the preparation, implementation, maintenance, use, alteration and removal of the building. In this sense, it is necessary to establish uniform standards and procedures for the development of the building information model and the built environment information model. In this way, controlled access to up-to-date information on buildings and the built environment, which can be used effectively in real time, will be guaranteed. The proposed solution will have an impact both on efficiency in construction, efficient management and maintenance of buildings and infrastructure, and on the rational development of the built environment. To this end, the draft law defines the rights and obligations of the various entities in the management of building and built environment information. In doing so, the Bill will be divided into 2 main parts in addition to introductory and enabling and transitional provisions. The first concerns the information model of the building and the second the information model of the built environment. Archive

Decree No. 268/2009 Coll.,on the technical
requirements for buildings
Decree No. 268/2009 Coll., on
the technical requirements for buildings (as amended) defines particular types of structures, determines
area technical requirements for structures and their location,
general safety and utility requirements for
structures (fire security, healthcare,

provides the technical requirements for construction falling within the scope
of the general construction authorities.
Decree No. 268/2009 Coll. lays down general requirements
on the protection of the health of persons and animals,
healthy living conditions
and the environment. Buildings must be designed and constructed so as not to jeopardise the life or health of people or animals, the safety or healthy living conditions of its users
or users of the surrounding
buildings, or the environment over the limits contained in other legislation, in particular: ·
releasing substances
that are harmful to the health and lives of humans, animals and plants; ·
the presence of harmful
particles in the air; ·
releasing emissions of harmful radiation, in particular ionising
radiation; ·
adverse effects of electromagnetic radiation; ·
pollution of the air and
surface and underground water and soil; ·
inadequate disposal of
waste water and smoke; ·
unsuitable handling of waste; ·
the appearance of dampness in building structures or on building structure surfaces inside buildings; ·
lack of thermal insulation and sound-proofing
properties depending on the nature of occupied rooms; ·
unsuitable lighting
properties. Buildings for which the project
documentation was drawn up before the effectiveness
of this Regulation shall be treated in accordance
with existing legislation. The building must be designed and
constructed so that, while being economical, it is
suitable for its intended use and at the same time meets the basic
requirements, which are: ·
mechanical resistance and stability, ·
fire safety, ·
protection of the health of persons and animals, healthy living conditions and the environment, ·
protection against noise, ·
safety in use, ·
energy savings and heat retention. Buildings and their elements must be
designed and constructed in accordance
with normative values such that throughout its planned
life, the building serves the desired
purpose and resists all effects
of stress and the adverse effects of the
environment, even under predictable but extraordinary stress that can arise
during the construction and use of the buildings. List
of CSN contains standard values used in the various provisions of the Decree
268/2009 Coll. (updated 2013). Products, materials and structures
designed and used for the building must ensure that the building meets the abovementioned requirements. Requirements on the construction of
buildings mentioned in this degree are therefore
need to be considered in relation to the
requirements of construction products for their intended use. 3.
