Clearwater Bay

Sites at Clear Water Bay Road and University Road, around Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Staff Quarters

​

Masterplan Limited was commissioned when a Judicial Review was lodged against Town Planning Board’s decision not to uphold the objections contained in a Representation in the making of the Draft Clear Water Bay North Outline Zoning Plan in 2007.

Masterplan Limited gave planning advice for the Judicial Review (Smart Gain Investment Ltd v Town Planning Board). The High Court found Town Planning Board’s decision was flawed and directed the objections to be reconsidered by the Board.

​

The Board’s reconsideration of the objections upheld the proposal in the Representation and rezoned the site to G/IC. Accordingly, Masterplan Limited made Section 16 Applications for a hospital and a hospital staff quarter at the respective sites in 2011 and 2012.


Masterplan Limited continued to assist the client in realizing the approved development scheme at the two sites.​​

​

Achievements:​

  1. The High Court’s judgement and its finding has become one of the more frequently cited references in town planning judgments.

  2. The G/IC zones will provide suitable facilities and services for the community.
