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 Cairo conference ... is about a complicated web of education and employment, consumption and poverty, development and health care. It is also about whether governments will follow where women have so clearly led them, toward safe, simple and reliable choices in family planning. While Cairo crackles with conflict, in the homes of the world the orthodoxies have been duly heard, and roundly ignored.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“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)
