The meeting with take place in Rav Shteinman’s home at 5 Chazon Ish Street in Bnei Brak.

The rabbonim will select a new director of the vaad following the petira of HaGaon HaRav Asher Tannenbaum ZT”L. It appears the post will go to HaGaon HaRav Chaim Aaron Kaufman, a son-in-law of the niftar. The rav, who is 52, serves as the rav of Jerusalem’s Maalot Daphne neighborhood. Rav Kaufman, described as a chossid who attended Litvish yeshivos enjoys a wide based consensus and this among his other traits, make him an ideal candidate for the post.
