Draft Stanley Outline Zoning Plan approved
******************************************
"The approved OZP provides a statutory land use planning framework to guide the development and redevelopment in the Stanley area," a spokesman for the Town Planning Board said today (May 14).
The planning scheme area, covering about 393 hectares of land, is located at the southern end of Hong Kong Island and is bounded by Tai Tam Country Pak to the north, and comprises the entire Stanley Peninsula and the Chung Hom Kok area.
Stanley is an area mainly for residential use with commercial and recreational uses. It is also a popular tourist spot with rich historical culture.
The approved OZP has incorporated amendments made to the draft OZP No. S/H19/13, which mainly involved the rezoning of the Maryknoll House site from "Government, Institution or Community" ("G/IC") to "Other Specified Uses" ("OU") annotated "Residential Development with Historic Building Preserved" and reflect the latest as-built condition of Ma Hang Park and Blake Pier.
Other zonings shown in the OZP include "Commercial", "Residential (Group A)", "Residential (Group C)", "G/IC", "Open Space", "OU" annotated "Composite Signals Organization Station Complex", "OU" annotated "Cemetery", "OU" annotated "Multi-storey Public Car Park to Include Bus Terminus", "OU" annotated "Historical Building Preserved for Cultural, Community and Commercial Uses", "OU" annotated "Pier", "Green Belt" and "Coastal Protection Area".
The approved Stanley OZP No. S/H19/14 is now available for public inspection during office hours at the Secretariat of the Board, the Planning Enquiry Counters of the Planning Department in North Point and Sha Tin, the Hong Kong District Planning Office and the Southern Home Affairs Enquiry Centre.
Copies of the approved OZP are available for sale at the Map Publications Centres in North Point and Yau Ma Tei. The electronic version of the plan can be viewed at the Board's website (www.info.gov.hk/tpb).
