Go down to Caesarea and see what's going on here, everything is neglected, everything is the wild west, everyone who owns a land apartment steals from the building, labors the garden, makes a car, makes private parking at the expense of public decency, and therefore the supervision does not exist with you at all, respected sir, if you intend to take care of Caesarea, then release us from you
Free Kirit Haim Shmuel, even so, you are useful to her. If you do nothing for Kirya, all you care about is the property tax of the illegals. Free us from you. If you did nothing for us, when did you speed here? The same in our territories in the public gardens, but the supervision under it exists in general
good evening
Mayor Yona Yahav, only this will leave you with a bicycle path, right? There are no recordings, there is nothing, and we will remain only a bicycle path. I asked you what it's like to sleep and get up by endangering the lives of the residents. What's it like to get up? Total neglect in Dagenia, so you are the mayor of the city, so nothing if nothing moves here
What about a bicycle path that will connect the cable car with Bat Galim and continue to the Carmel Coast Railway and continue along Route 4 to Zichron?
