The Town Planning Board today (July 25) published amendments to the draft Quarry Bay Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).
The plan mainly involves the incorporation of amendments to impose building height restrictions for various zones; rezoning "Commercial/Residential" ("C/R") sites to "Commercial" ("C") or "Residential (Group A)" ("R(A)"); rezoning a site from "Government, Institution or Community" ("G/IC") to "G/IC(1)"; and rezoning two sites from "C" to "C(3)" and "C(4)" respectively; designation of non-building areas; other corresponding rezonings to reflect existing uses on sites as well as corresponding technical amendments to the Notes of the OZP.
The draft Quarry Bay OZP No. S/H21/25, incorporating the amendments, is now available for public inspection during office hours at the Secretariat of the Board, the Planning Enquiry Counters in North Point and Sha Tin Government Offices, the Hong Kong District Planning Office and the Eastern District Office.
Any person affected by the amendments may submit a written statement of objection to the Secretary of the Board on or before August 15.
