Administration
On September 12, 2010, a local referendum on separation from Brno and the creation of a new municipality of Dolní Heršpice-Přízřenice was held in Dolní Heršpice and Přízřenice, however it did not succeed.
After the municipal elections in 2014, Daniel Kypr was elected mayor (ANO 2011). He was dismissed in December 2017 and Zdeněk Rotrekl (Chance for the South),[4] who died in May 2018, was elected as the new mayor.[5] Josef Haluza (ČSSD), who held this position from 2010 to 2014, was elected mayor at the constituent assembly meeting in autumn 2018.
