Singer Eyal Golan has been rejected for a third time in his attempt to join the moshav (agricultural community) of Beit Elazari. The latest vote, held this week, saw 93 residents oppose his admission out of 143 ballots cast, with only 50 in favor. This marks the latest setback in Golan's ongoing efforts to establish a home in the sought-after community located near Gedera in central Israel.

Golan's pursuit of residency in Beit Elazari began last year when he was initially denied entry. He had previously attempted to join the moshav Kfar HaNagid in 2024, where he was renting an apartment with his then-girlfriend Daniel Greenberg, but his application was also rejected.

In his previous attempt to join Beit Elazari, Golan offered to purchase a property valued at approximately 11 million shekels, spanning 27 dunams. He even attended a residents' assembly to appeal the decision, explaining his desire to raise his children in an environment that reflects his own upbringing. However, these efforts failed to sway the community members. In that vote, 89 out of 160 residents voted against his admission, falling short of the 120 votes needed for approval.

Beit Elazari is described as one of the most desirable moshavim in central Israel, part of the Brenner Regional Council, and had a population of 1,629 residents as of the end of 2024. Neither Beit Elazari nor Eyal Golan's representatives have issued a comment on the latest rejection.
