The Lev Hasharon Council refuses to provide information to the "Lavi Organization" about alleged construction offenses at Liat Ben-Ari's residence in Moshav Herut within the council.
According to a document obtained by Israel Today, signed by Lev Hasharon CEO Pnina Amuel-Moshe, the council refuses to provide the requested information on the pretext that Deputy State Attorney Ben Ari is a "threatening factor" and therefore the disclosure of the information is intended for "shame. And harassment "of family members and has the potential to" impair the peace of life of the property owners and their children. "
Lev Hasharon's CEO confirms that she reached her conclusions based on "data provided and presented by the property rights owner" - that is, Deputy State Attorney Ben Ari. The document states that in Lev Hasharon they approached the Ben Ari family to obtain their approval to provide information about the property they own, but The deputy attorney general and her husband refused out of "fear that the information will be used as a harassing and threatening use."
In the past, the Supreme Court required the tax authority to disclose the names of taxpayers with whom the authority made tax arrangements, arguing that "the taxpayers' right to privacy should recede in favor of the public's right to information since infringing it is outweighed by the benefits of disclosure."
The letter from the CEO of Lev Hasharon was delivered in response to a request for freedom of information on behalf of the Lavi organization, through Adv. Michael Devorin, to receive various materials about the property owned by the Ben Ari-Shvuki couple in Moshav Herut: Information regarding the types of planning and construction offenses , Lack of property tax payments for parts of the property that have been expanded and not reported, enforcement actions taken by the committee for construction offenses and the building portfolio of the property. lion.
The request was based on comments apparently written by the council inspector on the property's submission plan document (Garmoshka). "The said comments on Garmushka raise suspicion of many offenses allegedly committed on the property," Adv. Devorin wrote in an appeal to the Lev Hasharon Council. "Including suspicion of a significant enlargement of the basement and the addition of concrete walls, roofing of a surface that was supposed to be paved according to the plan, and more."
Israel Today has learned that while the Lev Hasharon Council is opposed to providing information on Ben-Ari's alleged construction offenses, the council is currently refusing to allow the couple to occupy their home built in the same block and Ben-Ari's plot in Moshav Herut.
The Lev Hasharon Council stated: "The council's response was forwarded to Lavi and is in accordance with the law in this matter."
Regarding the refusal to submit Form 4, it was stated: "The council does not intend to respond and / or provide information related to private individuals."
Lavi stated: "The exceptional refusal of the Lev Hasharon Council to provide the requested information is contrary to the rulings of the courts."
