Tareesh Discusses Bethlehem Infrastructure Plans
The Mayor of Birzeit, Engineer Muneef Tareesh, confirmed that the municipality is facing significant financial and service challenges due to the ongoing economic crisis and the withholding of its entitlements by the government. Its debts are estimated at around 14 million Jordanian dinars and more than 7 million shekels. Despite these circumstances, the municipality is working to improve the quality of services, complete vital projects such as the Salmiya School, address the waste management crisis, and develop archaeological sites and parks, in collaboration with various entities. The city is also challenged by settlement expansions that have considerably reduced its land area and impacted its infrastructure. Efforts are underway to facilitate building permits in threatened areas, along with initiatives for joint service management among neighboring municipalities. The continuation of these projects and efforts requires sufficient funding through the collection of owed fees and payments from citizens, in order to strengthen the city's resilience and continue improving services amid difficult conditions.
