Draft Tsing Yi Outline Zoning Plan amended
****************************************** The Town Planning Board today (September 2) announced amendments to the draft Tsing Yi Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).
The amendments mainly involve the inclusion of three pieces of land at North-west Tsing Yi into the Planning Scheme Area and zoning them as "Other Specified Uses" annotated "Recreation and Tourism Related Uses".
The public transport terminus next to Airport Railway Tsing Yi Station is rezoned from "Government, Institution or Community" to "Government, Institution or Community (1)" subject to a maximum building height restriction of 32mPD.
The woodland below the highest peak of Tsing Yi is rezoned from "Green Belt" to "Site of Special Scientific Interest".
Zoning amendments are also made to reflect the as-built conditions of the sites in Tsing Yi, and minor adjustments of the zoning boundaries are made to accord with the as-built conditions of the completed developments and roads. Corresponding amendments and refinements are also made to the Notes of the OZP.
The draft Tsing Yi OZP No. S/TY/21, incorporating the amendments, is now available for public inspection during office hours at the following locations:
* Secretariat of the Town Planning Board, 15th Floor, North Point Government Offices, 333 Java Road;
* Planning Enquiry Counter, 17th Floor, North Point Government Offices;
* Planning Enquiry Counter, 14th Floor, Sha Tin Government Offices, 1 Sheung Wo Che Road;

* Kwai Tsing District Office, 10th Floor, Kwai Hing Government Offices Building, 166-174 Hing Fong Road.
Any person affected by the amendments can submit a written objection to the Secretary of the Town Planning Board on or before September 23, 2005.
