Municipality’s strengths (reasons why to place your investment here):

The town is an important tourist centre of nation-wide (European) importance. The attendance of the town is estimated to 300 thousands of persons/year. The aim of the town is to increase attendance of the town even out of main season, which requires investments into the activities that will fulfil visitor´s time spent in the town. There should predominate the orientation to the culture and congress tourism in the offer. No common hall is situated in the town which lacks a lot and which is necessary for organisation of the social, business, and cultural meetings.

Forward-looking are the investments into the accommodation and boarding facilities in the form of the historical structures reconstruction, optionally by construction of the new ones. Totally insufficient for now is the offer of the sport possibilities during the stay in the town (aqua centre etc.).

Unnecessary for the well-balanced development of the town (seasonal working opportunities) is besides the orientation to the tourism the development of other production branches. The town concluded the Cooperation Agreements with the owners of following unused industrial buildings in the town:

Building LIRA (Mlýnská street 13, in the ownership of Motorpal a.s. (Plc.) – 1000 m², light industry, textile industry

Building MALÍRNA (Na Posvátné street 181, owner Crystalex Nový Bor) – 2100 m², dtto

Building “ČSAD” (Radkovská street 252, owner ICOM Jihlava) – production premises of total area 18 000 m², production halls c. 2900 m², administrative building 2 x 600 m², engineering, furniture industry etc.

Arts and culture, schools, housing, contacts for important institutions

Cultural centre of the region, some of the cultural activities of the nation-wide importance take place here (“French-Czech music academy”, “Holiday in Telč”).

The meaning of the town as a tourist center has not been fully appreciated so far and its importance will definitely grow in the future.

Education

Grammar school – 4, 8 years long studies

Vocational school - economics course

Telč is an internationally renowned tourist destination. Since 1970 Telč has been an urban historical conservation area, since 1992 it has been on the list of UNESCO World Cultural Heritage.

During the year Telč hosts many cultural festivals, some of them international. So far Telč has failed to take benefit from its entire tourist potential. In the future Telč’s importance as a tourist destination is certain to grow. To fill up gaps in tourist-oriented services in Telč some new investments in accommodation facilities including health care, spa and training-related services. So far Telč has been lagging behind in its offer of sporting facilities (e.g. there is no swimming pool).

The international renown of Telč can be extremely useful in running corporate presentations and product promotions. The Town Council would like to see new small industrial facilities being built (light industry, electrical engineering), which would generate new employment opportunities for people living in and around Telč.

Industrial Parks of the Vysočina Region

BAŠTÍNOV INDUSTRIAL PARK

1) Bref Description:

Baštínov Industrial Park with a total area in the neighbourhood of 18 hectares is located in the southern part of Havlíčkův Brod. The park already contains a ČMO – Českomoravské obalovny bituminous mixture processing facility and a technical certification station for trucks. Currently, Bohemia Gaz company is building here a logistics center for propane. Nearby is a production complex of former ACHP company and a transformer station Baštínov 400 – 110 kV. The site is near the III/03811 road (Havlíčkův Brod – Šlapánov).

Baštínov Industrial Park is on a slight slope facing south. In the middle of the northern part of the park is a hill sloping eastward and westward.

2) Transport:

Baštínov Industrial Park is directly connected to the III/03811 road leading from Havlíčkův Brod to Šlapánov. The construction of an overpass of this road is in a preparatory phase. The overpass represents the first part of a southeasterly bypass of Havlíčkův Brod. After it is completed, the whole industrial area of the town will be easily accessible. The construction has been given a land developing permission whose validity has been extended by the resolution ref. .ÚP/255/00/Je of April 3, 2000. The project is ready to start, the land has already been bought in, the project is also listed in the investment scheme of the Ministry of Transport.

welcome to Bystřice nad prenštejnem and its industrial park

Bystřice nad Pernštejnem is a historical center of the Bystřicko Microregion located in the southeastern corner of the Bohemian-Moravian Highlands with Brno some 50 kilometers away. Bystřice nad Pernštejnem spreads along the Bystřice River – a right-bank tributary of the Svratka River. It is 500 to 580 meters above the sea level. Bystřice nad Pernštejnem whose population is slightly over 10,000 has a long tradition in industry production. The priorities contained in the town’s development strategy include support to further development of high-tech industries and at the same time protection of the environment.

Business Promotion Project – Industrial Park

1) Brief description

The rate of unemployment in Bystřice nad Pernštejnem and its surroundings has shown intermediate growth during the last years and it outnumbers the Czech Republic average as well as district Žďár nad Sázavou average. It is mainly therefore that the second voting season is, besides the apartments construction, creation of new working opportunities is the main priority of the town vestry. The basic source of new jobs is undoubtedly new industry placed in the upcoming industrial zone.

Industrial zone of the town Bystřice nad Pernštejnem has got total volume of 60 hectares, when more than 40 hectares of it is already in the ownership of the town and the first 13 hectares are nowadays completely provided with engineering services so that it is prepared to immediate investment. Interest of the town in the investors acquirement is being demonstrated the most significantly in the price offered for the plots which does not exceed 100 CZK/m²

The town offers maximal help with arrangements of all administrative operations whose need will emerge in relation with the preparation and realisation of the investment. The town is further able to offer, in case of an investor interest, a plot for a long-term lease or provide any other service resulting from the specific needs and requests of investor.

2) Traffic infrastructure

The distance to the D1 motorway is 35 km. There goes the II/150 road through the town.

Railroad siding is placed in the location.

3) Engineering services

Water, gas, telephone lines even sewerage are brought here in the sufficient amount and capacity to the boarding of this plot, the way of connection to the electric energy inlet will depend on input requested by the investor.

In case the location of the plot of the particular investor, with regard to the mouth of engineering services, will be less advantageous for the investor, the town will bound itself to use a part of the income from the purchase price for the engineering services construction according to individual needs of investor.

Sewerage: sewage 300mm, 16,47 CZK/m³

Water: conduit DN 160 mm, price 23,14 Kč/m³

Gas conduit: DN 90 plastic STL 0,4 MPa

Electric energy: wiring of the high tension goes through boarding of the locality; it is necessary to build a transformer station with capacity according to the actual needs of investor.

Over the past years the unemployment figures in Bystřice nad Pernštejnem and the surrounding region have been climbing steadily and in the long run they have stayed both above the Czech Republic average and the average in the District of Žďár nad Sázavou. Therefore, aside from construction of new housing the Town Council has been pursuing already for its second term in office its long-term priority – creation of new job opportunities. One of the avenues toward lower unemployment are undoubtedly new production facilities placed in the Industrial Park.

The Industrial Park in Bystřice nad Pernštejnem has an area of approx. 60 hectares. More than 40 hectares of land is already owned by the Town Council of which 13 hectares has all the utilities that you need and is ready for your investment. Water, gas, phone and sewage infrastructure has sufficient capacity and are accessible on the edge of the site. Parameters of power supply infrastructure will be adjusted according to the needs of a concrete investor.

The fact how much the Town Council cares for investors is reflected in the selling price of the land which should in any case stay below 100 CZK/m². Should a investor have difficulty accessing utility supply lines from his portion of land, the Town Council will guarantee to use part of the money the investor pays for the land for adjusting utility lines to suit the investor’s needs. Investors can also use the land on long-term leasehold.

The Town Council is ready to meet any other specific requirements and needs an investor might have.
