Draft Ho Man Tin Outline Zoning Plan approved
*********************************************

     The Chief Executive in Council has approved the draft Ho Man Tin Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).

     "The approved OZP provides a statutory land use planning framework to guide the development and redevelopment within the Ho Man Tin area," a spokesman for the Town Planning Board said today (July 10).

     The planning scheme area, covering an area of about 210 hectares, is located in central Kowloon within the Kowloon City Administration District. It is bounded by Boundary Street to the north, the MTR East Rail Line and Princess Margaret Road to the west, Chatham Road North to the south, and Lomond Road, Tin Kwong Road, the eastern slopes of Ho Man Tin Hill and Shun Yung Street to the east.

     The approved OZP has incorporated amendments shown on the draft Ho Man Tin OZP No. S/K7/25, which mainly involve rezoning a site at Fat Kwong Street from "Government, Institution or Community" to "Residential (Group B)4" for a private residential development.

     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 Ho Man Tin OZP No. S/K7/26 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 Kowloon City District Office. 

     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).
