​The Town Planning Board today (March 21) announced amendments to the approved Ngau Tau Kok and Kowloon Bay Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).

     The amendments mainly involve (i) rezoning two sites at Choi Hing Road and Choi Ha Road from "Government, Institution or Community" ("G/IC") to "Residential (Group A)4"; and (ii) rezoning two strips of land at Choi Hing Road from "G/IC" to areas shown as 'Road' and a strip of land at Choi Ha Road from "G/IC" to "G/IC(3)" to reflect the as-built conditions.
      
     The Notes and Explanatory Statement of the OZP are amended to take into account the above amendments. Opportunity is also taken to update the general information of various land use zones and the planning scheme area, where appropriate.

     The draft Ngau Tau Kok and Kowloon Bay OZP No. S/K13/33, 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 Kowloon District Planning Office, and (iv) the Kwun Tong District Office.
