RE: Untreated latrine and sewage release by State Persons in
OccupyTLV camp.
Dear Mr Zkuf:
For about a year I am signed on the permit for the OccupyTLV camp. In
my first meeting in this regard with Mr Yacov Drachman, Neighborhood
Manager, he clarified to me of his own initiative that building latrines and
showers by the camp people, not by the Municipality, is strictly prohibited.
Such conduct is an obvious fundamental public health problem.
At the same time, an Iraqi Muslim family, which has nothing to do with the
OccupyTLV camp; and was apparently implanted at the front of the
OccupyTLV camp by State authorities, operates here for about a year a
private, untreated latrine and a private shower.
This morning, sewage was released by this family, which flooded
neighboring tents.
The tent most affected by the sewage flooding happens to belong to an
IDF invalid from the Second Lebanon War.
My attempt to explain to the Iraqi man that their conduct is unreasonable,
was answered by expletives.
It should be noted that Tel Aviv Municipality Inspectors, who routinely
inspect the tents of the OccupyTLV people, skip this family, which clearly
violates the restrictions placed on OccupyTLV people. Municipality
Inspectors explained to me that this family was exempt, since they were
State Persons.
I request immediate action by the Tel Aviv Municipality to eliminate this
serious health hazard in a public park and the OccupyTLV camp.
Needless to say, State authorities should find adequate solutions for
State Persons.
Truly,

1/3
