העותרת העתיקה מפעלה לאזור התעשיה באור עקיבא לאחר שנמסר לה על ידי הרשות כי תהיה זכאית להנחה מארנונה בכפוף למילוי קריטריונים, לרבות העסקת עובדים מקומיים. לאחר שהעותרת העתיקה את מפעלה לאזור התעשיה נתקבלה הנחיית החשב המלווה של הרשות לפיה אין ליתן הנחות בארנונה למפעלי תעשיה, הנחיה המחייבת את הרשות. מסיבה זו קבע בית המשפט כי אפילו ניתנה הבטחה למתן הנחה, הנסיבות מחייבות שינויה. בנוסף, בית המשפט קבע כי לא הייתה סמכות ליתן הנחה ללא אישור החשב המלווה ועל כן ההבטחה שניתנה הייתה חסרת תוקף מלכתחילה
