The mayors of the cities of Kfar Saba and Herzliya and Zichron Yaakov district announced the move in a joint statement, according to the Yedioth Ahronoth daily.
The mayors called on the government to stop moves to implement the controversial judicial reform and start negotiations with the opposition.
They also demanded that the unity, safety, and security of the Israeli people be safeguarded.
Israeli President Isaac Herzog urged the government on Monday to halt its bitterly contested judicial overhaul, a day after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sacked his defense minister for opposing the move, sparking mass street protests.
