Land to be resumed for housing
The Lands Department today said it will resume 30 private lots in Fanling and Yuen Long for the implementation of subsidised housing developments.
The lots, with a total area of about 1.12 hectares, are located at San Wan Road near Wong Kong Shan in Fanling, Shap Pat Heung Road near Lung Tin Tsuen in Yuen Long, and the junction of Yuen Lung Street and Yau Tin East Road in Yuen Long.
Notices for the land resumption were posted today and the lots will revert to the Government on September 10.
The three land parcels were the result of a review announced by the Development Bureau in May last year on private land zoned for high-density housing development, which was one of the measures announced by the Chief Executive to intensify Government-led planning and land resumption efforts.
The subsidised housing developments at these locations will provide a total of about 1,660 residential units, with the earliest population intake anticipated to be from 2027 and 2028.
