The budget of Tel-Aviv for the fiscal year will be £167,000 or $576,150, according to the budget proposals submitted by the municipality administration to the municipality council.
This is the largest budget of any city in Palestine, although Tel-Aviv is the second largest city in the country, after Jerusalem.
The new budget will involve a taxation of some £3 per capita for the population of approximately 60,000.
