Approved Lai Chi Kok Outline Zoning Plan amended
************************************************

     The Town Planning Board today (December 28) announced amendments to the approved Lai Chi Kok Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).

     The amendments mainly involved the rezoning of an existing private community centre at 38 Broadway, Mei Foo Sun Chuen, from "Residential (Group A)" to "Other Specified Uses" annotated "Private Community Centre". The main objective is to reflect its existing use as a private community centre serving the residents of Mei Foo Sun Chuen.

     The draft Lai Chi Kok OZP No. S/K16/15 incorporating the amendments is now available for public inspection during office hours at the Secretariat of the Town Planning Board, the Planning Enquiry Counters of the Planning Department in North Point and Sha Tin, the Tsuen Wan and West Kowloon District Planning Office and the Sham Shui Po District Office.

     Any person can make written representation in respect of the amendments to the Secretary of the Town Planning Board on or before February 28. Representations made to the Town Planning Board will be available for public inspection.

     Copies of the draft Lai Chi Kok OZP are available for sale at the Map Publications Centres in North Point and Yau Ma Tei. The electronic version of the OZP can be viewed at the Town Planning Board's website (www.info.gov.hk/tpb).
