**************************************************
The Town Planning Board today (June 24) announced amendments to the approved Tseung Kwan O Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).
The amendments mainly involve the rezoning of an area at the south-eastern part of Tseung Kwan O Area 137 from "Other Specified Uses" annotated "Deep Waterfront Industry" to "Other Specified Uses" annotated "Desalination Plant". Opportunity is also taken to amend the Notes and Explanatory Statement of the OZP to reflect the above amendment and to update the general information of various land use zonings and the planning area, where appropriate.
The draft Tseung Kwan O OZP No. S/TKO/23 incorporating the amendments is now available for public inspection during office hours at the Secretariat of the Board, the Planning Enquiry Counters of the Planning Department in North Point and Sha Tin, the Sai Kung and Islands District Planning Office, and the Sai Kung District Office.
Any person can make written representation in respect of the amendments to the Secretary of the Board on or before August 24, 2016. Representations made to the Board will be available for public inspection.
Copies of the draft Tseung Kwan O OZP are available for sale at the Map Publications Centres in North Point and Yau Ma Tei. The electronic version of the OZP can be viewed at the Board's website (www.info.gov.hk/tpb).
