Kennedy Town and Mount Davis OZP amended
The Town Planning Board today (Friday) announced amendments to the draft Kennedy Town and Mount Davis Outline Zoning Plan (OZP) No. S/H1/5.
One of the amendments is to designate the area proposed for the Island West Refuse Transfer Station (IWTS) in a cavern under Mount Davis to 'Green Belt (Sub- area 1)' and 'Village Type Development (Sub-area 1)', and to rezone the site previously reserved for the IWTS back to 'Green Belt' and 'Village Type Development'.
The amendment is to facilitate the implementation of the IWTS scheme selected by the Government, which is a more cost-effective and desirable development option from land use, environmental, engineering, operational and programming points of view as compared with the one shown on the previous OZP No. S/H1/5.

Another amendment is to rezone the two abattoir staff quarters sites at Ka Wai
Road, with total site
0.41 of about area
hectare, 'Government/Institution/Community' to 'Residential (Group A)' ('R(A)'). As the two staff quarters sites are no longer required for their original use and will be vacated soon, they are rezoned to 'R(A)' to provide land for residential development.
