That's why there are no pedestrian bridges. There is no renovation of public buildings such as libraries, museums and experiments. No new promenades are being built. If there are no donors we will do nothing. Boardwalks floating in the sea lol. The court ordered the municipality of Haifa to build a pedestrian bridge to the stadium over highway 4 four years ago, has anyone seen it? Let's start with that.
Do you know how much property tax the ultra-Orthodox do not pay in Haifa?
