Draft Shek Kong Outline Zoning Plan approved
********************************************
"The approved OZP provides a statutory land use planning framework to guide the development and redevelopment within the Shek Kong area", a spokesman for the Town Planning Board said today (June 12).
The planning scheme area, covering about 564 hectares, is situated in the south-eastern part of the North West New Territories. It is bounded by the Kadoorie Experimental and Extension Farm in the east, the Lam Tsuen Country Park and the Shek Kong Barracks in the north, Tin Sam San Tsuen and Yuen Kong in the west, and the Tai Lam Country Park as well as the Tai Mo Shan Country Park in the south.
The approved OZP has incorporated amendments shown on the draft Shek Kong OZP No. S/YL-SK/10, which mainly involve rezoning an area to the south of Kam Sheung Road and west of Lai Uk Tsuen from "Residential (Group D)" to "Residential (Group C)".
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 zonings and the planning circumstances, where appropriate.
The approved Shek Kong OZP No. S/YL-SK/11 is available for public inspection during office hours at (i) the Secretariat of the Town Planning Board, (ii) the Planning Enquiry Counters, (iii) the Fanling, Sheung Shui and Yuen Long East District Planning Office, (iv) the Yuen Long District Office, and (v) the Pat Heung 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 on the Town Planning Board's website (www.tpb.gov.hk).
