Planning and Building Law (Amendment – Cancellation of the Requirement of Water Corporation Approval for Connection to Electricity, Water and Telephone) Bill
Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק התכנון והבנייה (תיקון - ביטול התניית חיבור לחשמל, מים וטלפון באישור תאגיד המים)
TL;DRCanceling the requirement of water corporation approval for connecting a building to electricity, water and telephone.
Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill cancels the requirement to obtain approval from the water corporation as a condition for approving the connection of a new building to electricity, water and telephone under Section 157A of the Planning and Building Law. The reasoning for the bill is that there is no logical connection between connecting the building to these services and solving the sewage problem, and therefore there is no justification for making one conditional on the other.
