Haifa (מחוז חיפה) and the North (מחוז הצפון) are separate Israeli planning
districts, each with its own appeals committee. Two divergent bugs collapsed
Haifa into צפון:
- services/internal_decisions.py _VALID_DISTRICTS omitted "חיפה" (while the
tools-layer VALID_DISTRICTS and db.py citation-abbrev map both include it —
a G2 single-source-of-truth divergence)
- _COURT_TO_DISTRICT mapped "חיפה" -> "צפון", so Haifa courts derived צפון
Result: 2 Haifa committee decisions (1074-08-23, 8508-03-24) were mis-filed
under צפון, and "חיפה" never appeared as a district.
Changes:
- add "חיפה" to service _VALID_DISTRICTS
- _COURT_TO_DISTRICT: ("חיפה","צפון") -> ("חיפה","חיפה")
- SCHEMA_V43: reclassify legacy internal rows whose court mentions חיפה from
צפון -> חיפה (normalize at source, G1; idempotent)
Verified against live DB (rollback txn): 2 rows move צפון(6)->צפון(4)+חיפה(2).
Invariants: G1 (normalize at source) · G2 (single source of truth for the
valid-district set — follow-up: consolidate the 3 divergent lists).
