Development Plans
In 2006, a plan to relocate the bases in Tzrifin and construct a 'City of Training Bases' for army professionals and their families was sidelined in favor of expanding Ramat Hovav. Ramat Hovav soon began seeking funding from the government for clean-up. As of March 2008, construction of the City of Training Bases south of Ramat Hovav began against widespread citizen opposition.

Famous quotes containing the words development and/or plans:
“The American has dwindled into an Odd Fellow—one who may be known by the development of his organ of gregariousness.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“In order to become spoiled ... a child has to be able to want things as well as need them. He has to be able to see himself as a being who is separate from everyone else.... A baby is none of these things. He feels a need and he expresses it. He is not intellectually capable of working out involved plans and ideas like “Can I make her give me...?” “If I make enough fuss he will...?” “They let me do ... yesterday and I want to do it again today so I’ll....””
—Penelope Leach (20th century)
