City of Jerusalem to Build Park in Har Nof
By Betzalel Kahn

Jerusalem Mayor Rabbi Uri Lupoliansky recently promised Har Nof residents he would help them build a new park in the neighborhood.

A local association called Shomra--Lesviva Tova founded by Har Nof residents, the community administration, the City and the Jewish National Fund have completed plans for a large park on the slopes of the neighborhood. The residents invited the Mayor to tour the site after a private entrepreneur sought to construct high-rise apartment buildings, commercial space and a parking lot on the land.

During the tour the Mayor met with neighborhood representatives and the Environmental Committee. When committee representatives presented the Mayor with the plans for the new park he was very impressed and promised to help promote it. The Mayor said he believes the park will improve the neighborhood's appearance and contribute to the city's beauty.

He praised the Environmental Committee's work in Har Nof saying that upon taking office he made a firm pledge to environmental improvement in the city through the Yerushalayim Berosh Naki project.
