The amendments mainly involve the rezoning of a site at Wang Chiu Road from "Open Space" to "Residential (Group A)" ("R(A)") and "Government, Institution or Community" for a public rental housing development and a secondary school respectively; the imposition of a building height restriction of 140 metres above Principal Datum on a site zoned "R(A)" near the junction of Kwun Tong Road and Choi Shek Lane; various zoning amendments to reflect the as-built conditions; and incorporation of "Art Studio (excluding those involving direct provision of services or goods)" as a Column 1 use in Schedule II of the "Other Specified Uses" annotated "Business" zone and corresponding amendment to replace "Place of Recreation, Sports or Culture" under Column 2 by "Place of Recreation, Sports or Culture (not elsewhere specified)".
