Removed wayspot appeal
Title of the Wayspot: מרכז קהילתי פיס
Location: 32.068469, 34.821745 (roughly)
City: Ramat-Gan
Country: Israel
Screenshot of the Rejection Email: N/A
Photos to support your claim: N/A; Street View
Additional information: This wayspot was removed earlier, probably due to its proximity to the nearby highschool. However, that building is NOT connected to the school, neither is it on the school's grounds - more than 40 meters separate the building and the school, and they are both surrounded by fences and separated by a public boulevard/park (seen on Google as Sderot HaShihrur).
As for the object of the wayspot, it's a Pais Community Center - those are common community centers in Israel funded by the Pais public-benefit company. They are often found inside of school grounds - so this specific center is somewhat of an outlier by being on public grounds. This center, like all Pais centers, serves the local community by hosting cultural activities for all ages. As a public cultural center, I think this is a worthy wayspot and don't see why it was removed.
(I should note that I wasn't the one to nominate this wayspot - it was a very old wayspot).
Comments
Insufficient Evidence - Resubmit Appeal. Thanks for the appeal, Trainer. Due to insufficient evidence, we’re unable to retire the Pokéstop/Gym in question.
If you have additional evidence to share, please submit articles confirming that מרכז קהילתי פיס
still exist at the location and it is not part of the Alon High School.
Resurrecting this discussion as I have found (or rather, only just realized I've always had access to) some evidence that might be clear enough -
This screenshot is taken from Ramat-Gan's municipal Geographic Information System (GIS) website. It's an official website with a lot up-to-date information regarding the city's grounds and structures. In the above screenshot, I've requested information on the Community Center. Translation of the table's contents are as follows -
Building name: Sports center
Description: Sports center
Classification: Vacation and sports
Sub-classification: Sports club
Campus: [N/A]
Street: Uziel
House Number: 104
Entrance: A
In comparison, this is the table for the nearby high school:

Classification: Education
Sub-classification: High School
Campus: Alon School Hadash High

This is the Engineering Department page on Ramat-Gan's municipal website, which links to the GIS system, in case there's any doubt of its source. (muni.il is a domain used only by official municipal websites in Israel.)
If you've got anyone on the team who's fluent in Hebrew, the website is free to use for the public (although the interface is a bit cumbersome/complicated and may take a bit to get used to).
@NianticVK @NianticGiffard - Since KK is long inactive, maybe one of you can have a look at this?
These are probably gonna get posted out of order (because photos go to moderation) but another bit of information from the GIS website -
Bump, @NianticVK / @NianticGiffard
@NianticGiffard Re-bump?
