The Haifa Sailing Association demands that a criminal investigation be opened against Nachshon Tzuk - Mayor of Haifa says

The sailing association issued a scathing letter to Mayor Nachshon Tzuk, in which it points out his connections with yachts and a company that manufactures yachts and demands that a criminal investigation be opened against him. According to the association, Tzuk used his position as the holder of the maritime portfolio to promote a deal for the purchase of a Dzeta boat for the maritime school , produced by the company, which he himself represents.


"Intends to work to establish a boat anchorage on the Pacific coast"

In the letter, the Rabbi in the article, the association also demands that Nahshon Tzuk stop dealing with the affairs of the Pacific Coast, due to a conflict of interest. According to the association, Tzuk said in the media recently that he intends to work to establish a boat dock on the Pacific Coast, therefore it is not possible for him to be part of the negotiations regarding the activities of Pacific Coast Sailing Association.

"In interviews with the media, you clarified that you intend to act to establish a boat anchorage on the Pacific Coast. Such a move is not possible without a complete cessation of sailing activities on the Pacific Coast," wrote the lawyer of the sailing association, Assaf Oren. "Furthermore, by virtue of your position as the holder of the sea portfolio in the municipality, you are responsible for all the decisions made by the municipality regarding the Pacific Coast and the entities operating there, including the outrageous decision to evacuate the association from the Pacific Coast. And for evidence: you are writing to all the letters recently sent by attorney Topaz Keller to the association, including a demand The evacuation from 10/04/2022".

The Haifa Municipality demands that the "Haifa Cruise" association vacate the Pacific Coast within 30 days

As a reminder, in recent months the municipality claims that the sailing association is operating improperly on the Pacific Coast. In recent weeks, the association and the municipality's lawyer have been in negotiations in order to find a way that will allow the association to continue operating. During the negotiations, the municipality issued a letter in which it demanded that the association vacate the Pacific Coast within 30 days. The association claimed that the demand was unfair, since there had been negotiations that would have made it possible to reach an agreement on the continuation of the association's activities. The municipality claimed that the association conducted the negotiations in a non-serious manner and the M did not advance.

Parents of children in the sailing association claimed on social media that the municipality is conducting itself in an incomprehensible manner. According to the parents, the children really like the sailing and it is very meaningful for them. It should be noted that alongside the children, who are learning to sail, there are also children on the autistic spectrum who come to the Pacific Coast every week for activities, and for them the club is very, very significant. The parents of the children on the continuum look with concern at the activity of the municipality in front of the sailing association and are very afraid that their children will not be able to continue the activity, which is doing them so much good.

In addition, every time the topic of the sailing association comes up on Facebook, there are many supporters of the sailing association, who respond, and less support for the municipality's activity against them. The attempts of the supporters of the municipality to explain that, after all, they are interested in a proper administrator and therefore they are working against the sailing association, are met with angry reactions, that the sailing association does everything the municipality asks and, despite this, it is unable to continue its activities without interruptions.

According to the sailing association, Tzuk is the owner of yachts in Haifa and Greece and is currently active in business or was involved in business activity in the yachting industry. In the letter, Attorney Oren Shazuk states that he serves as a shareholder and director of Ruh Gavit Ltd., which is engaged in, among other things, the import, marketing and sale of boats and yachts. In addition, Attorney Oren claims in the letter that Tzuk assumed his position as the holder of the maritime portfolio in order to promote a deal for the purchase of a boat for the maritime school manufactured by the Polish company represented by Tzuk. that he could be impressed by Dzeta's dedication and you worked with the factory representative to coordinate the arrival of Mr. Lauber, including taking a stroll on a lake in Poland. However, this trip did not come to fruition due to the limitations of the Corona crisis."

In addition, the letter states that a few days ago in an interview on Radio Haifa, Tzuk claimed that the company he owns is not active, but the sailing association did an inspection and according to them the company is active and Tzuk continues to serve as a shareholder and as an officer in it.

The boating association forwarded the letter sent to El Tzuk to the legal adviser to the government for the purpose of examining the serious allegations arising from the letter. According to the association, it is necessary to open a police investigation in view of the existence of an apparent fear of committing criminal offenses. In addition, the association, through Attorney Oren, claims that there is a prohibited conflict of interest here, even if Zuk did not benefit from it. According to the association, the conflict of interest is seen in the fact that the municipality issued a letter regarding the Pacific Coast to the association while Zuk apparently has a business interest in the Pacific Coast. The association demands Shatzuk will announce within 10 days that he will stop dealing with any matter related to the Pacific Coast and the entities operating there. If Zuk does not do this, Attorney Oren claims that the association will seek relief in court.

The response of Nachshon Tzuk and Haifa Municipality:

The Municipality of Haifa refused to directly address the claims made against Nachshon Tzuk and gave a general response to the issue, which is a quote from the mayor, Dr. Einat Kalish Rotem:
"The municipality informed Hani that it will not be able to fulfill its obligations on the sailing beach lands because the city council has reset the budget for the maintenance of the sailing vessels used by Haifa sailing and the maritime school.

In addition, the council dictated the closure of the professional standards of the Sea Authority and prohibited the deepening of the water to 1.5 m as required by the inspection division of the Ministry of Education. Under these circumstances, the municipality of Haifa will not be able to continue to meet its obligations and responsibilities in the sailing areas of the Pacific coast."

In view of the general reaction, and due to the seriousness of the personal allegations against Nachshon Tzuk, we also addressed a personal appeal to him, but he refused to respond to the serious allegations against him and replied that he only wants to take the municipality's response (a response that does not refer to the personal allegations against him at all) and beyond that he refused to respond.

  1. Nachshon is an unreliable person and a professional liar! He is one of the ones responsible for the downfall of the mayor. The man disconnected from reality destroyed the sailing field in Haifa.

  2. In my opinion, the legal service of the municipality, which has so far succeeded in walking through all the problematic conduct of the municipality's management and whoever pulls the strings there, has also become involved in this case. The demand of the legal department of the municipality to evacuate the sailing association from the Pacific Coast completely ignores the connection of Nachshon Tzuk to the issue and I suggest that the association urgently submit a complaint to the IAHA on the matter.... Rani suggests to the lawyers in the legal department that they prepare good answers, if they have any such answers at all!

  3. MM Haifa Mayor Nachshon Tzuk, my friend, is a charming man who honestly stands by Einat Kalish Rotem.

  4. What do you want, the total continuation of the agenda of demolishing every good part that still works here, not something unusual in the view of the mayor

  5. The municipality of Haifa does not have several tens of thousands of NIS in maintenance budgets. You will be surprised. The 2000 pensioners of the municipality itself have over 3000 million shekels to rob every year in budget pensions that are double the salary offered in the economy and some of them are 3 times the minimum wage in the economy. Yes, the budget for any urban development is simply over, but the main thing is that Goral's secretaries fly twice a year on organized trips.. at least for that the attendance will never be cut.

  6. How is it that Nachshon Tzuk has been sitting on the top seat in the Haifa municipality for three and a half years and still has no private mooring for a yacht?

  7. Why am I not surprised??? The witch is not able to do something good without having a personal gain from it. I am convinced that the words volunteering and consideration are rude words for her and her maxim is to write them without errors. Burying the city.

  8. Now everything is clear... it was simply delusional the mayor's demand to close the Haifa cruise. Haifa Cruise has been around for 20 years. One of the gems of the city. Many champion surfers and sailors left the Haifa cruise.
    Of course... the deputy mayor needs to build his new business quickly... before the elections.

  9. Did you read the municipality's response? As usual, everyone is guilty except for Klish and Tsok. As for the suspicions against Nachshon Tzuk, he has a more serious problem, with judgment. also on other subjects.
