***********************************************
     The Town Planning Board today (July 22) announced amendments to the approved Pok Fu Lam Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).

     The amendments mainly involve the rezoning of a site to the east of 3 Sassoon Road from "Green Belt" to "Government, Institution or Community (1)" for campus expansion of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong, and a site at 131 Pok Fu Lam Road from "Government, Institution or Community" to "Residential (Group C) 7" for residential development.

     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.

Any person who intends to make a representation is advised to read the Town Planning Board Guidelines No. 29B on "Submission and Publication of Representations, Comments on Representations and Further Representations under the Town Planning Ordinance" (TPB PG-No. 29B).
