Brno cooperates with the towns and municipalities in its hinterland for the purpose of coordinated and interrelated development of the entire Brno metropolitan area. Collaboration is beneficial for all the involved stakeholders. There is consensus that the metropolitan level is the basic principle of the creation of conceptual documents of spatial (strategic and territorial) planning of the City of Brno.

Contribution to the city

Thanks to the coordinated development and management of the BMO, increasing demands are satisfied  on the quality of the technical and transport infrastructure, the environment, accessibility and localization of public services, housing and business. This increases the quality of life of inhabitants of the whole Brno metropolitan area.
