Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The bill changes Section 62A of the Planning and Building Law so that local committees, instead of district committees, will be able to decide on increasing the permitted building areas on plots designated for housing. For multi-unit construction (four housing units or more), it is proposed to allow an increase of up to 25% of the plot area or 750 square meters. For construction that is not multi-unit, it is proposed to allow an increase of up to 7% or 50 square meters, up to a total of 175 square meters. A transitional provision states that plans previously submitted to a district committee will remain with it, unless they were deposited with a local committee.
