The District Planning and Building Commission has approved an urban renewal plan for neighborhoods 5 and 6 in central and southern Tel Aviv. This plan, which replaces the national TAMA 38 urban renewal program, allows for the addition of approximately 14,000 new housing units in buildings up to seven and a half stories high. The plan is subject to restrictions related to the White City, a UNESCO World Heritage site, which preserves modest building volumes and architectural character. Previously, a renewal plan was approved for neighborhoods 3 and 4. The new plan aims to address urban renewal in historic parts of the city, but the requirement for betterment levies (hetel hashbacha) may negatively impact the economic feasibility of many projects.
