It was reported by the municipal engineer that the dilapidated wall on the southern side of the house owned by the Nimr (?) family, in the Şark Neighborhood, must be demolished. In accordance with the 53. article of the Public Buildings Regulation, this matter was notified to the said family, but nothing has been done as yet. If the said wall is not demolished, it will pose threat for the neighborhood residents, passersby and the buildings nearby. It has been approved that the said wall be demolished by the council members Tahir Bey and Hacı Huseyin Bey, and the engineer Ibrahim Effendi. It is thus appropriate to relegate the matter to the municipal police force. The 14th of Tishrîn Awwal (1)313 (26th of October 1897).

This fonds consists in the minutes of meetings of the Arab Municipal Council of Jerusalem from its creation in 1948 to its dissolution in 1967. In most cases, one minute matches one meeting, except for one relating to meetings held during three days in a row (1961-04-16 to 1961-04-18 - B937-3). The lacks observed in the original numbers given to these meetings and documents point out that one minute is missing for the beginning of summer 1955 and another one for autumn 1955 (B936-7). Moreover, the minutes of the meetings held between January 1958 and December 1959 could not be found. Therefore, a chronological gap exists between the folders B936-11 and B937-1.
Order numbers were given by the Arab Municipality itself to each of these meetings, apparently starting back from 1 when a new council was composed, except for opening sessions and irregular meetings which were named as such and not counted. From December 1963, confidential debates could occur during a meeting. In this case, two minutes were issued with the same meeting order number: a regular one and a confidential one (e.g. minutes of the meeting of the Municipal Council held on 1963-12-11 – B938-2).
The fonds allows to retrace not only the creation of the Arab Municipal Council of Jerusalem after 1948, but also the relations established with other political, social, religious institutions, its humanitarian action and its ordinary management until the 1967 war.
