Draft Man Kam To Outline Zoning Plan approved
*********************************************
"The approved OZP provides a statutory land use planning framework to guide the development and redevelopment within the Man Kam To area," a spokesman for the Town Planning Board said today (November 7).
The planning scheme area, covering about 344 hectares, is bounded by the southern bank of Shenzhen River in the north, Ping Che Road in the east, Hung Lung Hang in the southeast, Lo Wu Station Road in the southwest and Ng Tung River in the west.
The approved OZP has incorporated the amendments shown on the draft Man Kam To OZPs No. S/NE-MKT/5 and No. S/NE-MKT/6, which mainly involved rezoning the sites at Sandy Ridge from "Other Specified Uses" ("OU") annotated "Cemetery, Columbarium, Crematorium and Funeral Related Uses" to "OU" annotated "Innovation and Technology" for data centres and related purposes.
The Notes and Explanatory Statement of the OZP have been amended to reflect the above amendments. Opportunity is also taken to update the general information of various land use zones and the planning circumstances, where appropriate.
The approved Man Kam To OZP No. S/NE-MKT/7 is available for public inspection during office hours at (i) the Secretariat of the Town Planning Board, (ii) the Planning Enquiry Counters, (iii) the Sha Tin, Tai Po and North District Planning Office, (iv) the North District Office and (v) the Ta Kwu Ling District Rural Committee.
Copies of the approved OZP are available for sale at the Map Publications Centre in North Point. The electronic version of the OZP can be viewed at the Town Planning Board's website (www.tpb.gov.hk).
