The Town Planning Board today (November 18) announced amendments to the approved Kennedy Town & Mount Davis Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).
      
     The amendment involves revision of building height restriction for a portion of the "Government, Institution or Community" zone at the junction of Pok Fu Lam Road and Pokfield Road from four storeys to 115 metres above Principal Datum (mPD) and 155mPD, 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 scheme area, where appropriate.
      
     The draft Kennedy Town & Mount Davis OZP No. S/H1/23, 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 Hong Kong District Planning Office and (iv) the Central and Western Home Affairs Enquiry Centre.

     Any person may make written representations in respect of the amendments to the Secretary of the Town Planning Board on or before January 18, 2023. Any person who intends to make a representation is advised to read the 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
* The Secretariat of the Town Planning Board reserves the right to require the representer to provide identity proof for verification.
