Sharon Shalom.
Thanks again for choosing this project! I would be grateful if you could distribute the attached summary as my written submission for your Studio's work.
Additionally, I assume that the students work through some structured or semi structured process, and hope that you could include in its written components recommendations for the park dwellers and all others involved, regarding Public Health issues, including drinking water, showers, toilets, food, animals.
Obviously, I would eventually be happy to read what the students write.

and Students of the Spontaneous Architecture Studio,
Bezalel

Thank you for choosing the project in the Occupy Tel Aviv camp.

I write to submit in writing my input for your project, following our discussion yesterday in my tent. and to provide links to supporting records:

a.  The TLV Municipality owes very little to people like me, who stay in the park under a Permit for Social Protest 24/7.  I renew the Permit on a monthly basis.  As far as I know, I am the only one who Permit holder at this time.  In the past, Permits were issued in parallel to Mr Danny Falkevitch and to me. However, Mr Falkevitch has since left the camp.

The permit is based on the extension of an Agreement signed on November 28, 2012, between one Mr Tamir Hajaj and the TLV Muni.  However, the TLV Muni would not permit me, the current Permit holder. to view the original Agreement, even after Freedom of Information Act requests.

With it, the records show that the TLV Muni and Israel Police refused to provide the OccupyTLV camp honest services from the beginning, e,g, providing security, or trash collection.,,

b. The TLV Muni owes to all residents of TLV to maintain a Public Toilet facility in the park, as one of six prescribed throughout the TLV Muni, by TLV Muni's own laws and regulations.

c. The fact that some people, like me, choose to live in tents, out of protest, does not create permission or any legal foundation for the TLV Muni to create and maintain "public housing solutions" for the homeless, which fail to comply with the laws of the State of Israel and laws and regulations of the TLV Muni (directly, or indirectly, through contractors and subcontractors, through charitable associations, or through a "community" "Kehillah").  

In short - the TLV Muni and the gov of the State of Israel must address the homeless pursuant to the law, and provide them with adequate housing, including reasonable infrastructure, whether it is in the park area or elsewhere.

Regardless of all the above, Architect Rotbard and I agreed that Public Health issued are of the highest priority, and then Architect Rotbard also produced Gandhi's article on the same subject "The Perfect Village", from almost a century ago...

I have no doubt that your contribution is essential here, and would likely be of interest also in other camps in Israel.

In parallel, I hope that you could connect me with some experts for creating a small model vegetable garden and regarding low energy house design.  In all these areas, I hope that the OccupyTLV camp would become an interesting educational asset to the public at large.

Attached is my short CV, and other records, pertaining to the OccupyTLV camp, communications with TLV Muni and Israel Police on matters related to health, permits, demolitions, etc...

Please note that the narrative emerging from these records is diametrically different from the one you would get from the TLV Muni, or which was produced by Israeli media, even relative to very recent events.  In particular - relative to "Demolition Decrees" or "Eviction Decrees", which never existed, but the TLV Muni was easily able to implant news of in print media and TV. 

In this matter as in others, the OccupyTLV camp produces a microcosm of law, society, and Human Rights in the State of Israel - 2014.

With all of that, I have no doubt that Bezalel Art School and the Spontaneous Architecture Studio, led by Architect Sharon Rotbard, would leave a constructive and creative imprint in this space and in the Social Protest movement in Israel.

I would be glad to provide additional information upon request.

All the best,
