Draft Urban Renewal Authority Sai Yee Street/Flower Market Road Development Scheme Plan published
******************************************************************************************
     The Town Planning Board today (August 23) announced the publication of the draft Urban Renewal Authority (URA) Sai Yee Street/Flower Market Road Development Scheme Plan (DSP) No. S/K3/URA5/1.

     The scheme area has a total site area of about 29 315 square metres and is mainly designated as "Other Specified Use" annotated "Mixed Use (1)" and "Other Specified Use" annotated "Mixed Use (2)" ("OU(MU)2"). The development scheme adopts an integrated approach and the "single site, multiple use" model, providing a mix of residential/hotel/office/retail uses and a sizable public open space (i.e. Waterway Park). Various new and upgraded sports, recreational, healthcare and social welfare facilities are proposed to improve the overall living environment of the area and to reinforce the vitality of the Flower Market. A public vehicle park shall be provided on land within "OU(MU)2" zone to alleviate the shortage of car parking spaces in the area.

     In accordance with section 25(9) of the URA Ordinance, the draft Sai Yee Street/Flower Market Road DSP No. S/K3/URA5/1 replaces the related areas of the draft Mong Kok Outline Zoning Plan No. S/K3/37 as delineated and described in the draft DSP.

     The draft DSP No. S/K3/URA5/1 is now available for public inspection during office hours at (i) the Secretariat of the Town Planning Board, (ii) the Planning Enquiry Counters, (iii) the Tsuen Wan and West Kowloon District Planning Office and (iv) the Yau Tsim Mong District Office.

     Any person may make written representations in respect of the draft DSP to the Secretary of the Town Planning Board on or before October 23. Any person who intends to make a representation is advised to read the Town Planning Board Guidelines No. 29C on "Submission and Processing of Representations and Further Representations" (TPB PG-No. 29C).

* If the representer fails to provide his or her full name and the first four alphanumeric characters of his or her Hong Kong identity card or passport number as required under TPB PG-No. 29C, the representation submitted shall be treated as not having been made; and
* The Secretariat of the Town Planning Board reserves the right to require the representer to provide identity proof for verification.
