Mayors for the Liberec Region (, SLK) is a regionalist party in the Czech Republic, established ahead of the 2008 regional elections. The party won the 2012 regional election in Liberec and its leader Martin Pà ¯ta became governor of the Liberec Region, the first time a governor had come from outside one of the major parties. SLK cooperate with the Mayors and Independents party.
The party focuses on regional issues. It supports economical responsibility, transparency and flood repairs. SLK were critical of the coalition between ÃÂSSD and SOS that governed the region in 2008âÂÂ2012. SLK criticised the coalition for corruption and slow repairs to roads damaged by floods.
SLK was established in 2008 and participated in regional elections that year, receiving just under 14% and forming part of the opposition in the regional assembly. SLK participated in the 2010 legislative election, with its members nominated by TOP 09. SLK member Jan Farský was elected as a member of parliament.
Martin Pà ¯ta led SLK into the 2012 regional elections and won over 20% of votes, with Pà ¯ta becoming Governor of the region. In 2016 he again led the party into elections, winning over 30% of votes.
