N2 - This chapter explains the line adopted by the Haifa municipality in the 1940s in allocating its resources was directed to meet the needs of the mixed town, and not for the purpose of satisfying interests emanating from the Jewish-Arab conflict. It also shows that the main effect of the municipality in developing the area was evident in the changes made in Arab parts. As a result, significant improvements were obvious in the Arab neighborhoods. Road development, sewerage installation, and improvement of cleaning and sanitary conditions were all part of the features of the progressive Arab neighborhood. With residential segregation between Jews and Arabs still the main order of the day, the daily work of shared Arab-Jewish municipal council stood out as important, almost singular manifestations of joint administrative framework. The manner of dividing the work in building the Town Hall and in locating the site of the public library in area of mixed residence attests to this very well.
