EMERGENCY WORK LARGELY COMPLETED
In Po Shan Road Disaster Site
A spokesman for the Building Authority said today that the emergency
work on the landslide slope above and below Po Shan Road in the western
mid-levels area had now been largely completed, and consideration was
being given to the form which the final restoration of the area would take.
A meeting was recently held between senior officers of the Buildings
Ordinance Office, the Police and representatives of the majority of the
buildings closed because of the landslide.
The first point discussed at this meeting was the arrangements which
were subsequently put in hand for residents to service their flats on one
day in the week.
The representatives of the various management groups were also
asked to arrange for the appointment of authorized architects to act on
behalf of the owners so that the Building Authority could discuss with these
persons when they were appointed the measures which would be necessary in
order that reoccupation could be permitted.
The first of such discussions has already been held between officers
of the Buildings Ordinance Office and architects appointed in respect
of No. 21 Po Shan Road, Mirror Marina at 49 Conduit Road and Skyline
Mansion at 51 Conduit Road.
It is hoped that the architects will propose measures to be taken jointly which will deal with the present situation. Any proposal made will,
of course, be subject to the approval of the Building Authority.
