"The existing land use pattern is dominated by low and medium density private housing in Kowloon Tong and Ho Man Tin, industrial development on the flat land in San Po Kong, Kowloon Bay and Kwun Tong, and large-scale public housing development on the foothills.

"The future development in Central and East Kowloon is likely to be influenced by changes both within the district and in the adjoining areas, particularly development in Tseung Kwan O and South East Kowloon..

"One of the primary goals of this study is, therefore, to achieve full land use- transport-environment integration with the surrounding metro districts," the spokesman added.

The study will be completed by February 1996.

Largest commercial site in Fanling to be auctioned

A prime site in Fanling is to be auctioned on January 25, 1995 for commercial development which, on completion, will provide more than 100,000 square metres of office and shop space.

The site, measuring 1.128 hectares at Luen Wo Hui, is the largest commercial site in the northeast New Territories to come under the hammer.

Details of the site and other conditions of sale will be gazetted on December 30.

District Lands Officer/North, Mr Albert So, said because it was a large site for a town centre development, he had written to all major developers and the Real Estate Developers Association informing them of the forthcoming auction.

"This is to give potential bidders ample time to make forward planning by providing them with the basic data of the site," Mr So said.
