Approved Pok Fu Lam Outline Zoning Plan amended
***********************************************
The amendments mainly involve (i) rezoning a site between Pok Fu Lam Road and Victoria Road from "Green Belt", "Residential (Group C)6" and area shown as 'Road' to "Other Specified Uses" annotated "Global Innovation Centre" for proposed Global Innovation Centre of the University of Hong Kong; and (ii) rezoning narrow strips of land along Victoria Road and a strip of land to the south of Wah Mei House, Wah Fu Estate, to suitable zonings to reflect the existing alignment of Victoria Road and the land grant boundary of Wah Fu Estate.
The Notes and Explanatory Statement of the OZP are amended to take into account the above amendments. Opportunity is also taken to update the general information of various land use zones and the planning scheme area, where appropriate.
