Approved Ma Tau Kok Outline Zoning Plan amended
***********************************************
     The Town Planning Board today (October 28) announced amendment to the approved Ma Tau Kok Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).
      
     The amendment involves revision to the stipulated building height restriction of a site zoned "Government, Institution or Community" at 40 Lung Kong Road from three storeys to 45 metres above Principal Datum, to take forward the decision of the Metro Planning Committee of the Town Planning Board on a Section 12A application.
      
     Opportunity is also taken to amend the Explanatory Statement of the OZP to reflect the amendment and to update the general information of various land use zonings and the planning area, where appropriate.

     The draft Urban Renewal Authority Nga Tsin Wai Road/Carpenter Road Development Scheme Plan (DSP) No. S/K10/URA3/1 has replaced the related area of the draft Ma Tau Kok OZP No. S/K10/29 as delineated and described in the DSP starting from the date that the exhibition of the DSP is first notified in the Gazette on October 28.
      
     The draft Ma Tau Kok OZP No. S/K10/29, incorporating the amendment, is available for public inspection during office hours at (i) the Secretariat of the Town Planning Board, (ii) the Planning Enquiry Counters, (iii) the Kowloon District Planning Office and (iv) the Kowloon City District Office.

     Any person may make written representations in respect of the amendment to the Secretary of the Town Planning Board on or before December 28. Any person who intends to make a representation is advised to read the revised Town Planning Board Guidelines No. 29B on "Submission and Publication of Representations, Comments on Representations and Further Representations under the Town Planning Ordinance" (TPB PG-No. 29B).

     Submission of a representation should comply with the requirements set out in TPB PG-No. 29B. In particular, the representer should take note of the following:
      
* If the representer fails to provide his or her full name and the first four alphanumeric characters of his or her Hong Kong identity card or passport number as required under TPB PG-No. 29B, the representation submitted shall be treated as not having been made; and
