Pilsen wants to build hundreds of other city apartments in the coming years, of which 2655 now own. The municipality also selected six areas where it will build new houses with rental apartments. In addition, the Zátiší project will be completed in September this year, with 183 new smaller flats. Deputy Mayor David Šlouf (ODS).

"We have before us the renovation of houses in Smetanovy sady, in Bolzanova, Thámova, Tělocvičná, Kotkova, Kalikova and Na Jíkalce streets, where the houses will be reconstructed," he said. Originally, some of them were supposed to go to the country due to the city stretch, road I / 27 from south to north. In the end, however, it turned out that the transport solution would be different," said Šlouf. This year, the budget for houses in Kotkova and Kalikova Street is already CZK 50 million, and for Smetanovy sady about CZK 30 million.

"And now we are reconstructing Korandova Street for about CZK 100 million, Plachého for about CZK 25 million and, of course, Zátiší," said Šlouf. The first 77 flats in Zátiší were built and approved last June, and now 106 flats are being built in the second stage, which will be completed in September. This smaller housing estate will offer housing for around 500 people who find it difficult to rent or own housing on the commercial market, ie the elderly, the disabled, single people, families caring for disabled children and young families as starting affordable housing.

The city lost 500 flats a few years ago when it sold flats on Sylván, built between 2002 and 2005 with a state subsidy. "We sold them to the vast majority of existing tenants, so we did not have an increased demand for housing, because the tenants are now the owners. And we threw the money we received into the construction of Zátiší," said Šlouf.

The city has also set aside six plots of land, which it wants to build up in the future with city rental housing. Studies are being prepared. The areas are in Světovar, Zátiší, in Litice, on the right side of Karlovarská near the locality Pod Záhorskem and in two gaps - Na Jíkalce and in Plachého street.
