Approved Chai Wan Outline Zoning Plan amended
*********************************************
The amendments mainly involve (i) rezoning of a site to the south of Chai Wan Swimming Pool from "Green Belt" and "Government, Institution or Community" to "Residential (Group A)" ("R(A)") for public housing development; and (ii) rezoning of a site to the immediate west of the MTR Chai Wan Station from "Comprehensive Development Area" to "R(A)" to reflect the as-built development.
Opportunity is also taken to amend the Notes and Explanatory Statement of the OZP to reflect the above amendments and to update the general information of various land use zonings and the planning scheme area, where appropriate.
The draft Chai Wan OZP No. S/H20/26, incorporating the amendments, 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 Eastern Home Affairs Enquiry Centre.
