Draft Recommended Outline Development Plan (RODP)
1. Accommodating Diversity and Creating Activity Nodes
Street Vibrancy and Local Commercial
Three “Key Activity Nodes” would serve the residents in different parts
of the PDA and in the vicinity by providing living necessities, retail
and leisure opportunities. Residential communities would have retail
shops and restaurants. Street-level commercial activities are encouraged
to add vibrancy and vitality to the area.
Community Facilities
Existing residential and village communities could share use the planned
infrastructure, community and commercial facilities.
Consolidation of Brownfield Operations
Land is reserved for storage and workshop uses, as well as for job
opportunities. Subject to the implementation of the pilot case in Hung
Shui Kiu NDA, the feasibility of multi-storey industrial compounds or
other land-efficient means will be explored to accommodate some of the
affected brownfield operations . Flexibility for accommodating some
operations requiring open-air setting has also been allowed for.
Retaining Existing Residential Communities
The clusters of well-established residential communities in the PDA are
proposed to be retained. Considering their current low-density nature,
open space or low-density uses are planned in the surroundings to
complement the environment.
Agriculture
The active agricultural land in the southern part of Tong Yan San Tsuen
would be preserved. Joining with the preserved secondary woodland, the
“Green Zone” is intended as a physical manifestation of the rural
tradition of Yuen Long.
