Mayor of Tiberias Ron Kobi trucked in tons, literally tons, of snow to the boardwalk of Tiberias and threw a street party on Shabbos day for residents to come enjoy the snow (video was posted on Kobi's FB page). Supposedly about 15,000 people participated and enjoyed.

Local religious and Haredi residents were upset, not just at the chilul shabbos but also by the fact that immediately as Shabbos concluded, the complex was closed and the snow removed. Meaning, not only did Kobi throw another street party involving mass chilul shabbos, but also brought in this snow and found a way to exclude religious/Haredi residents who could not even enjoy stomping around in it after Shabbos, as Kobi had it removed.

Kbi's response was that by the end of the day the snow was muddy and melted and no good any longer and they could not just leave it there in an empty complex waiting for someone to get hurt, so they had to remove it. And of course Kobi also added that the city of Tiberias no longer buckles under Haredi coercion, blah blah blah..

That's like rubbing salt in the wound...it is also discriminatory. Even if he wants to promote chilul shabbos activities, why should the religious residents not be able to choose to benefit from the same services after Shabbos is out? Perhaps the religious residents should boycott such an event anyway so as not to benefit from chilul shabbos and so as not to support such endeavors as if they are ok with it, but that is their own choice - should they choose to stomp around in the snow, it should be made equally available to them.
