Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill adds a legal definition of a "pergola" as a structure without walls built in a yard, on a roof or on a balcony, made of light materials and supported on posts, on condition that it does not exceed 10% of the residential area. The bill provides an arnona exemption for this pergola area, through an amendment to the 1938 Municipal and Government Taxes (Exemptions) Ordinance. The exemption is meant to reduce the tax burden on residents who use a pergola for shade.
