     The Chief Executive in Council has approved the draft Pok Fu Lam Outline Zoning Plan (OZP).

     "The approved OZP provides a statutory land use planning framework to guide development and redevelopment in the Pok Fu Lam area," a spokesman for the Town Planning Board said today (January 15).
 
     The planning scheme area, covering about 413 hectares, is bounded by Mount Davis Road to the north and Pok Fu Lam Country Park to the east. The area extends to the waterfront to its south and west. 
 
     Pok Fu Lam is predominantly a residential area with the provision of a number of government, institution or community facilities.
 
     The approved OZP has incorporated amendments made to the draft OZP No. S/H10/18, which mainly involved the rezoning of a site adjacent to the Cyberport Arcade to "Other Specified Uses" ("OU") annotated "Cyber-Port(1)" to facilitate the proposed Cyberport expansion, and rezoning of the existing Cyberport Waterfront Park to "Open Space" for enhancement of the park.  
 
     Other zonings shown on the OZP include "Commercial", "Residential (Group A)", "Residential (Group B)", "Residential (Group C)", "Village Type Development", "Government, Institution or Community", "OU" annotated "Cemetery", "OU" annotated "Cyber-Port", "OU" annotated "Petrol Filling Station", "Green Belt" and "Country Park".
 
     The approved Pok Fu Lam OZP No. S/H10/19 is now available for public inspection during office hours at the Secretariat of the Board, the Planning Enquiry Counters of the Planning Department in North Point and Sha Tin, the Hong Kong District Planning Office and the Southern Home Affairs Enquiry Centre.
 
     Copies of the approved OZP are available for sale at the Map Publications Centres in North Point and Yau Ma Tei. The electronic version of the plan can be viewed at the Board's website (www.info.gov.hk/tpb).
