After examining in detail the 69 sites to be rezoned, we conclude that the Government should prioritise and
expedite the process for at least 25 of them. Minor site formation and tree removal may be required for certain
sites but majority of these sites remain technically feasible to be rezoned. (Please refer to Appendix III for
the list of sites and details)
Moreover, we found that another 25 sites may be challenging in their rezoning process and/ or other processes
afterwards. Among these 25 sites, 15 of them are “brownfield” sites with existing operators. Developing these sites
will inevitably involve the complicated processes of land resumption, relocation and compensation.
The rezoning difficulty of the remaining 19 sites may not be ascertained at the moment as it will be conditional upon
further studies on key factors including the availability of the site, neighbourhood capacity, impact on the environment
and other technical constraints etc.
