From a resident of the area:
Yesterday (23.3.11) a many-participant meeting was held with the Deputy Mayor and holder of the Chair of Sustainability, Naomi Tzur.
The representatives of the residents, the municipal center and the hotel repeated the explanations on the safety and accessibility issues the project (in its current form) is creating.
Representatives of the Transportation & Infrastructure Development Division and Planing Company stuck to their stance that the project is being carried out according to high standards of safety, and that it is in compliance with all the rules of the Ministry of Transportation.
It was decided:
- To continue the current freeze on the roadwork of the project.
- To have another discussion "in the field".
- A promise was given for Sheshet Ha-Yamim street to create substantial changes before continuing with the work.
- As regards to French Hill, a promise was given to reexamine the safety and accessibility aspects.
By an estimate of the current situation - in light of the stubborn position of the representatives of the planning company - there will not be any major changes in French Hill.
Therefore it is very important to act now!!!
It will be helpful if you can send a personal email explaining you objections to the project to the following Deputy Mayors:
Naomi Tsur - holder of the Chair of Sustainability:
Kobi Kachlon - holder of the Chair of Planning and Construction:
If you know other people who can write emails - please ask them to so as quickly as possible.
