4.

5.2. shall sum up the proposals received during the project development and take them into account in developing the project. If a proposal is not taken into account, a reasoned reply shall be given to the person who has submitted the proposal and it shall be annexed to the project.

6. In developing the protection area project, the following aspects shall be taken into account:

6.1. the structure of historic planning;

6.2. the natural borders of the cultural monuments and the adjacent historical environment;

6.3. the possibility of discovering new parts of the cultural monument;

6.4. access to the cultural monument;

6.5. the necessity to preserve the cultural and historical landscape of the cultural monument;

6.6. the visibility of the cultural monument from the main viewpoints and the visibility of the landscape from the cultural monument.

7. In determining the size of the protection area, the status of the cultural monument, the landscape values and the territorial development priorities according to the development programme and the territorial planning of the local government shall be taken into account.

8. If the protection area overlaps with other protection zones, specially protected nature territories or micro-reserves, the stricter requirements for the protection and utilisation of the relevant territory shall be in force.

9. The maintenance mode in the protection area shall be determined in accordance with:

9.1. the requirements of the laws and other laws and regulations;

9.2. the conservation and maintenance requirements of the relevant object and its cultural and historical environment in accordance with the cultural and historical significance of cultural monuments;

9.3. the opportunities for the development of economic activities which comply with the nature of the relevant cultural monument and the adjacent environment.

10. The protection area of the cultural monument shall be kept in order by the owner (possessor) of the relevant cultural monument and the owners (possessors, users) of the real estate (land parcels) whose property is located in the protection area of the cultural monument. The protection area borders in nature shall not be marked by special signs.

11. The maintenance mode of a protection area shall be determined by the Inspection on the basis of the developed protection area project. The maintenance mode and the border plan of the protection area approved by the Inspection shall be submitted to the owner (possessor) of the cultural monument, to those real estate (land parcels) owners (possessors, users) whose property is located in the protection area of the relevant cultural monument and also to the local government.
