On 23 November 2012, the Housing Department (HD) introduced the overall public housing development in Tuen Mun to the Environment, Hygiene and District Development Committee (EHDDC) of TMDC. On 6 January 2015, the Development Bureau (DevB) and Planning Department (PlanD) jointly presented the sites suitable for conversion to housing development in the short to medium terms in Tuen Mun.

According to Tuen Mun Outline Zoning Plan (OZP), the domestic plot ratio of the housing sites in Tuen Mun Area 54 is 5. In view of the community pressing need for public housing, HD proposes to increase the plot ratio of Sites 1 & 1A and Sites 3 & 4 (East) to 6. HD has been conducting technical assessments on the proposal, which is considered feasible. After the DC consultation, HD will submit the proposal to the Town Planning Board (TPB) for consideration. HD will also timely review the plot ratio for Site 4A (South) & Site 5 to address the pressing need for public housing, and will further consult DC if required. 3.1 Tuen Mun Area 54 Site 2 (Plan 2)

The building works for public rental housing (PRH) at Tuen Mun Area 54 Site 2 was commenced on 24 June 2014 and is anticipated for completion in mid-2017, providing about 4,600 flats.

Other Potential Public Housing Sites1 (Plan 1, Annex 3 and Annex 4) 5. On 2 September 2014, HD, PlanD, and relevant Government departments consulted TMDC on the public housing development at San Hing Road in Tuen Mun, and the relevant OZP amendment. At the meeting, members expressed concerns including traffic and transport etc. Subsequently, the Government has been investigating proactively on the adjustment of the site and the surrounding area for public housing development, and following up with members’ concerns. Currently developing the site in two portions is under consideration. According to latest estimation, the two portions may produce 1,700 and 5,600 flats respectively, with a total of 7,300 flats. Since it is still under study, with a lot of variables for consideration, the details of the proposal including the number of flats have yet to be determined. 6. Hong Po Road site is located to the west of the original scheme of the public housing development at San Hing Road in 2014. Relevant Government departments are conducting study on the feasibility of public housing development at this site in parallel. 7. Among the other potential public housing sites which DevB and PlanD consulted TMDC on 6 January 2015, some are still under study while studies for the remaining sites are yet to commence. Conclusion 8. For better utilisation of land resources and meeting the pressing need of the community for public housing, HA has to develop public housing in Tuen Mun according to the above plan, will continue to liaise with relevant Government departments in identifying suitable land for public housing development in response to the housing needs of the low- and middle-income families.
