Nissim Kahlon argues that authorities and officials approved of his home by connecting him to the power grid years after issuing a demolition order that never was carried out.
, only material, that’s the logic," Kahlon explained."Everything is useful, there’s no trash."
Kahlon acknowledged that he built the home without any permits, and he had to shut down a restaurant he tried to open because of city hall opposition, but he argues that officials tacitly approved of his home when they connected his home to the electric grid decades ago. But the EPM has raised concerns in light of explosions at an abandoned facility in the 1990s that damaged the integrity of the cliffs, which have only continued to deteriorate in the intervening years. Another explosion last month compounded the damage. The ministry also said Kahlon had caused"significant damage to the cliff, endangered the public and reduced the beach for public passage" over the past 50 years.
The Herzliya municipality and EPM have continued to argue over who has the responsibility to deal with the condition of the area, with the EPM ultimately taking the charge to issue the eviction notice, while the Herzliya municipality allegedly found alternative housing for Kahlon, which he does not appear keen to take up.
