Description

Regional Council Hevel Modi'in (previously Regional Council Modi'im) is located is the western sloops of Juda Mounts on their border with the shore plain, near the city of Lod. City hall is near Sho'am. Est. 1950, pop: 12,000. At the city hall I noticed both the emblem and a white flag with blue emblem. The municipal emblem was published in the official gazette (Rashumot, Yalkut ha-Pirsumim), YP 633, 13 November 1958, for the then Regional Council Modi'im, and was not replaced when it changed its name.
