​The Town Planning Board today (March 20) announced amendments to the approved Hung Shui Kiu and Ha Tsuen Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).

     The amendments mainly involve (i) rezoning the area from "Other Specified Uses" ("OU") annotated "Port Back-up, Storage and Workshop Uses" to "OU" annotated "Industry Park"; (ii) rezoning three sites in Planning Area 4B from "Residential (Group B)3" ("R(B)3") to "Residential (Group A)6"; (iii) rezoning the southern site of Planning Area 34E from "Government, Institution or Community" ("G/IC") to "G/IC(1)"; (iv) revising the building height restriction from three storeys to 50 metres above Principal Datum for the "G/IC" zone to the east of Sha Chau Lei; and (v) rezoning a site to the south of Tuen Ma Line Tin Shui Wai Station from "Comprehensive Development Area" to "Residential (Group A)7".

     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.
