As part of the TMA 38 project, which is being carried out at 23 Deer Boulevard - the avenue known and known as the unique avenue of trees in the city of Haifa, a number of trees will be uprooted for the purpose of the works. The resident of the city Avishai Kafir, who is very upset and pained to see that the unique landscape on the avenue will disappear and change as a result of the uprooting of the trees, posted on the Facebook page in which He wrote: "Get a photographic souvenir and show your grandchildren that there used to be a beautiful avenue of trees here that the Haifa municipality was proud of," and pointed out that as part of the TMA 38 clearing construction project, the trees are about to disappear because the municipality approved the developer to cut down "only 5" and the developer is already asking for 8 and it will end up in concrete And about 25 dead or stumped trees. And the saddest thing is that after this starts the dam will burst and more of these will come.
From an inspection conducted by the Haifa system in front of the Haifa municipality, it becomes clear that the municipality did not authorize the developer to uproot any trees at all, and the opposite is true, the municipality objected to this and following the objection, the developer turned to the appeals committee, which approved the request contrary to the municipality's position.
Haifa Municipality gave a response to Haifa:
"The Haifa Municipality did not approve the building application at 23 Sderot Zvi. Sderot Zvi and the streets adjacent to it are among the most scenically sensitive areas in the city and therefore the municipality established a strict policy regarding the construction instructions on the site and within height restrictions, the preservation of the trees and vegetation on the site. These issues were re-validated within the framework of TAMA 38 policy principles established by the Haifa local committee."
"In accordance with this policy, the local committee rejected the construction request at 23 Sderot Zvi and did not approve the uprooting of trees on the spot anyway. Following the rejection of the application by the municipality, the developer turned to the district appeal committee, which approved the request contrary to the municipality's position, and in light of this, the developer submitted a new construction plan. The Haifa municipality insists that the developer is required to republish the plan for public objections and for a renewed examination. Against this background, the developer applied once more to the appeals committee which will examine the parties' position on the issue. The Municipality of Haifa will continue to insist that the area receives the treatment it deserves and will continue to maintain its unique character".
