By ETGAR LEFKOVITS
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg has proposed setting up a special municipal team which will work in tandem with the Jerusalem Municipality. The proposal was made in a Monday night telephone conversation between Bloomberg and Jerusalem Mayor-elect Nir Barkat, in which Bloomberg congratulated Barkat on his recent election victory, Barkat spokesman Evyatar Elad said Tuesday. The team would work to share ideas and replicate successful ventures which have already worked in NY, he said.
