***************************************************
The amendments mainly involve the (i) rezoning of the existing Wang Cheong Factory Estate in Cheung Sha Wan and the adjacent section of Tan Lai Street from "Open Space" to "Residential (Group A)11" ("R(A)11") for public housing development; (ii) incorporation of the areas covered by the approved Urban Renewal Authority (URA) Lai Chi Kok Road/Kweilin Street and Yee Kuk Street Development Scheme Plan (DSP) No. S/K5/URA1/2 and the approved URA Hai Tan Street/Kweilin Street and Pei Ho Street DSP No. S/K5/URA2/2 into the OZP and zoning the areas as "R(A)12" and "R(A)13" respectively to reflect the completed developments; (iii) rezoning of a site at Tai Po Road from "Comprehensive Development Area" and "Green Belt" to "Residential (Group C)7" to reflect the existing residential development; and (iv) other amendments to reflect the current uses and as-built conditions.
Opportunity is also taken to amend the Notes and Explanatory Statement of the OZP to reflect the above amendments and to update the general information of various land use zonings and the planning scheme area, where appropriate.
