Additional analyses of visuals impacts and plans for road improvements were released today to the Southern District Council We are asking for an additional visual impact from the roof of Presidential Towers at Baguio Villas, and for the Traffic Impact Assessment. We made suggestions on road improvements. Motions were passed calling for associated works including road improvements, MTR station and pedestrian links along the waterfront. Government is preparing the rezoning of the waterfront area to allow for the development. The procedure will allow for further community input. We expect this to proceed in September. 數碼港今日發佈了新的模擬相片及簡介道路改善建議。 我們已要求他們提供從下碧瑤董事樓天台望向數碼港的模擬相片，及交通影響評估報告。我們對多個道路改善方案提供了建議。 區議會今日通過兩項動議，要求政府開展多項周邊工程，包括改善對外道路交通、於數碼港設置港鐵站及將海濱長廊連接起來。 我們預計政府部門將於9月左右向城規會遞交文件修改土地用途，屆時居民可發表意見。 Presentation to Southern District Council on 18 July 2019

This visual shows the impact of the planned East Lantau Metropolis (a.k.a. Lantau Tomorrow Vision), a $624 billion reclamation around Kau Yi Chau island located between Pokfulam and Lantau. The designer assumed a maximum building height of 120m and a bridge link across the East Lamma Channel. The view point is the junction of Cyberport Road and Sha Wan Drive. At the public hearing in LegCo last Saturday (13 April 2019) I argued that priority should be given to cleaning up and developing the New Territories over and above pouring the money in the sea for a new island. You may watch the video below.
大家可透過此圖片了解交椅洲人工島填海計劃會如何影響薄扶林的景觀。據政府早前粗略估算，「明日大嶼願景」工程造價為6240億元，當中包括在交椅洲（位於薄扶林及大嶼山之間的水域）興建人工島。提供圖片的設計師假設樓宇最高高度為120米，及當局使用行車橋而非海底隧道型式連接交椅洲至香港島。圖片攝於數碼港道近沙灣徑的路口。剛過去的星期六（2019年4月13日），我出席立法會公聽會時指出政府應優先處理及發展新界現有土地，而非投放巨大資源興建人工島。你可你可觀看我以下的發言。

Now we know why the Innovation and Technology Bureau objected to the community proposal for a sports pitch near the Arcade (Newsletter Nov 2017)!
The Financial Secretary has set aside HK$5.5billion in his 2019 Budget to expand Cyberport’s facilities:
“I will earmark $5.5 billion for the development of Cyberport 5. This will serve to attract more quality technology companies and start-ups to set up their offices in Cyberport and provide a pathway for young people to pursue a career in I&T. The expansion project is expected to provide about 66 000 square metres of floor area, and include facilities such as offices, co-working space, conference venues and data service platforms. We will proceed with the statutory town planning procedures with a view to commencing construction in 2021 for completion in 2024 at the earliest.”
This is a significant increase. The existing Cyberport 1 - 4 is 92,000 square metres. The plan received shows that Cyberport 5 will be located in front of the Cyberport Arcade. News reports show the site as 1.6 hectare and a proposed building height of 11 storeys. The hotel is 13 storeys.
In Cyberport’s press release (click here) it is promised that “Cyberport will carry out a series of work to improve the environment and facilities of the existing waterfront park.”
I have asked Cyberport to release detailed plans for public consultation soon.
What do you think? Do you support or object to the plans, or want more information first?
Should government use the expansion to also resolve previous requests from residents (see below). Should anything else be dealt with?

我們於2017年11月的薄扶林報告中，提到創新及科技局以希望預留土地擴建數碼港為由，反對於海濱公園興建球場，今日謎底終於解開。
財政司司長於今日的財政預算案中宣佈：「我會預留五十五億元用作發展數碼港第五期，以吸納更多具實力的科技公司和初創企業進駐，也為年輕人提供投身創科界的途徑。擴建項目預計可提供約六萬六千平方米樓面面積，以及包括辦公室、共用工作間、會議場地及數據服務平台等設施。我們會着手進行法定城市規劃程序，以期項目可以在二零二一年動工，預計最快於二零二四年竣工。」
擴建規模頗大，現在數碼港 1至4 座總樓面面積為九萬二千平方米。我們收到的資料顯示數碼港五座選址為商場前方的公園部份，建築物前面將預留空間設置海濱長廊。
綜合多份新聞報導，數碼港五座將佔地1.6公頃，樓高11層（艾美酒店為樓高13層）。
數碼港於新聞稿中提到：「數碼港亦會進行一系列改善工程優化現行海濱公園的環境及設施。」
我們已聯絡數碼港，希望他們能盡快發放擴建計劃的詳情，以便進行公眾諮詢。
你對擴建計劃有什麼意見？政府應否藉今次機會落實過往多年來居民的訴求？趁着擴建計劃，政府應否落實過往多年來居民的訴求？你又希望政府及數碼港一併改善哪些設施？

超過500名居民向城規會及運房局就更改土地用途及相關道路基建項目提供意見。我們要求政府改善薄扶林道/域多利道路口設計、擴闊近華翠街的一段域多利道及提供充足商業車輛泊位以減少車輛違泊問題。
Over 500 residents made submissions to the Town Planning Board and under the Road Works Ordinance. We are pushing for improvement of the junction of Victoria Road and Pok Fu Lam Road, widening of Victoria Road near Wah Chui Street, and additional goods vehicle parking to get rid of the illegal parking.

我們發現政府原有的道路設計出現技術錯誤，我們藉此繼續呼籲政府於薄扶林道/域多利道路口使用分層交匯工程設計。
Our request for a grade separated junction at Pok Fu Lam Road and Victoria Road is still alive after we proved technical errors with the proposed design.

我們要求政府擴闊由聖保羅書院小學至新住宅項目的一段域多利道。如房屋署繼續用盡地界興建公屋，將會扼殺擴闊或改善道路的空間及機會，未來於早上時間出現大塞車。
We are petitioning government to widen Victoria Road between the developments just north of St. Paul’s College Primary School. Building right up to the two site boundaries would forever restrict Victoria Road to two lanes and result in unresolvable congestion during the morning peak.

The Town Planning Board held meetings in May and June 2018 to hear the views of residents, after which they approved the plans for the new developments with various conditions.
In short:
We will continue to press for improvements through the District Council, and through direct communications with the Housing Authority and the Civil Engineering and Development Department. The work is expected to start in 2020 and will be completed in 2025.
城規會於2018年5月及6月開會聆聽及討論申述人士的意見，並有條件地通過重建計劃的規劃申請。
簡單而言：
雖然政府其後建議擴闊域多利道（往香港仔方向）近聖保羅書院小學的一段行車路，我們仍然對城規會未有正視所有意見而感到失望。
我們會繼續要求房屋署和土木工程拓展署改善方案。當局預計工程會於2020年展開並於2025年完成。

While we support an increase in public housing, there are significant concerns over the planning for the extension of Wah Fu. We have consolidated the comments and created an online petition to the Town Planning Board.
原則上我們支持增加公共房屋供應量，但是我們關注今次修訂的具體細節。我們將已收到的意見整合成為一份致城市規劃委員會的網上聯署信，方便大家簽名表達訴求。

我反對薄扶林分區計劃大綱圖中的修訂（A項及B項），理由如下：
• 雖然最近的建築物距離貝沙灣最少300米，但是房屋署未能提供最終設計及顏色配搭等資料，以確保建築物能融入附近翠綠的景觀及減低對數碼港道居民現有景觀造成影響。
• 為減低對居民現有景觀造成影響，房署應該降低華富北及華景街的樓宇高度。
• 都會規劃小組委員會文件5/17 顯示華富原址重建後，樓宇高度將會大幅增加，我們對此表示強烈反對。房署需提供具體及全面的計劃確保原址重建後的樓宇高度不會比現時的為高。
• 房署應該將位於域多利道聖保羅書院小學附近新建築物的平台縮入，確保道路及行人路光線充足及保持開揚感覺。
• 當局需為發展項目提供足夠的商用車輛泊車位，避免車輛沿違域多利道例泊停車泊。請注意有最少兩個臨時停車場因重建計劃而需要關閉，而區內的商用車輛泊車位一直供不應求。
• 房署未有提供全面的計劃交代重建後的行人網絡，及如何將行人路接駁至現有的天然行山徑。署方需要改善行人網絡令區內居民能更容易及直接地接觸大自然。
• 房署於都會規劃小組委員會文件5/17中交代的薄扶林道／域多利道路口改善工程力度不足，難以應付長遠的交通需求。路口附近的土地用途為「道路」，我們必須趁機會進行重大改善工程，不能等到飽和時先再作考慮。
• 政府至今還未有交代南港島線（西段）及北港島線的前期工作及通車時間表，於這個情況下提出修訂分區計劃大綱圖是不負責任。
Dear Chairman and Members
I object to the proposed amendments (items A and B) to the Pok Fu Lam Outline Zoning Plan for the following reasons:
- The Housing Department has failed to demonstrate that - although the nearest buildings are over 300m away - the final disposition of the buildings and colour scheme ensure it blends in with the mountain backdrop, and ensures sight lines are maintained for residents along Cyberport Road.
- The height of the buildings planned for Wah Fu North and Wah King Street should be reviewed to reduce the visual impact for existing residents.
- The absence of a comprehensive plan committing to a staggered building heights not taller than the existing buildings. We strongly object to an increase in building height within the original Wah Fu site (as indicated in the MPC paper 5/17).
- The development along Victoria Road near St. Paul’s College Primary School creates a canyon effect and the podia on both side should be set back.
- The development should include parking for trucks and coaches used by residents – so they are no longer park on nearby roads. Note also that existing temporary car parks will disappear and that there is a territorial shortfall of parking facilities for larger vehicles.
- The proposed development lacks a comprehensive plan for footways through the area including to and from nature trails. The development of the site should enhance the ability of the community to enjoy the surrounding vegetated areas.
- The proposal lacks a commitment to upgrading the junction of Victoria Road/ Pok Fu Lam Road. A major upgrade to cope with the additional traffic, as opposed to the upgrade being proposed in the MPC paper 5/17, should be committed to. Note that the land for this has been reserved on the outline zoning plan. Waiting for future traffic to reach capacity is foolish - we should plan ahead.
- A commitment is needed from Government to a program for the planning and implementation of South Island Line (West) and the North Island Line prior to approval of any increase in development.

Development Concept Plan
發展概念圖
[18-9-2017]
A revised outline zoning plan for Pokfulam has been gazetted for comments by the Town Planning Board. The changes to the plan are limited to those required to accommodate the redevelopment of Wah Fu Estate by the Housing Authority. Over the last 12 months government has adjusted the plans in response to comments from residents – including our concerns over the efficiency of the junction of Victoria Road and Pokfulam Road. Government also agreed with us on rejecting proposals to use of the valley directly opposite Bel-Air Phase 4-6.
城市規劃委員會宣佈修訂薄扶林分區計劃大綱圖，現正讓市民提供書面意見。今次修訂只針對華富邨重建計劃的相關變動。過往12個月，房屋署多次修改重建計劃以回應各方訴求，包括我們非常關注的薄扶林道／域多利道路口之負荷能力。同時，署方與我們一同反對動用貝沙灣四至六期對出的谷地作重建用途。
Some 8,900 new units will be completed around 2025-2027. These will be used to decant the old estate prior to redevelopment. The Southern District Council has urged the government to continue to consult the community and to speed up planning for South Island Line (West).
預期新興建的8900伙將於2025-2027年落成。這些單位將用於安置現時華富邨的居民，以便拆卸及重建華富邨。南區區議會已促請政府要繼續傾聽居民的意見及盡快進行南港島線（西段）的前期工作。

將位於域多利道聖保羅書院小學附近的新建築物位置向後移，確保光線充足及保持開揚感覺。 - Although the nearest buildings are over 300m away, we want a say over the final design and colour scheme of the buildings to ensure they blend in with the mountain backdrop.
雖然最近的建築物距離貝沙灣最少300米，但是我們仍然希望能對最終設計及顏色配搭發表意見，以確保建築物能融入附近翠綠的景觀。
- The height of the buildings at Wah Fu North, Wah King Street and the existing Wah Fu Estate site should be reviewed to reduce the visual impact for existing residents.
為減低對區內居民現有的景觀造成影響，當局應該降低華富北、華景街、華樂徑及華富邨的樓宇高度。

The Housing Authority has revised their plans and reduced the development area by 30% to 13 hectares. The number of units is maintained at 8,900 by increasing the height. The target completion date is 2025. The junction of Victoria Road and Pokfulam Road will be upgraded. The revised plans will reduce the traffic impact of the new development for this junction. However, we will continue to pressure for a grade separated junction design. And we are asking for solutions for the shortage of parking facilities for goods vehicles, and a timetable for the South Island (West) MTR line. These plans will be discussed in the District Council next week.
房屋署修改了華富邨重建計劃，將總發展範圍由原方案縮減近三成至13公頃，透過增加建築物高度以維持8900伙。重建計劃最早一期將於2025年落成。當局會改善薄扶林道及域多利道交界的路口設計。而修訂方案亦會變相減少該路口的額外交通流。話雖如此，我們會繼續向政府施壓要求將路口設計由單層改為雙層、增加商用車輛的泊車設施及提供南港島線（西段）的通車時間表。區議會將於下星期討論華富邨重建計劃。

These plans will be discussed in the District Council next week.
房屋署修改了華富邨重建計劃，將總發展範圍由原方案縮減近三成至13公頃，透過增加建築物高度以維持8900伙。重建計劃最早一期將於2025年落成。當局會改善薄扶林道及域多利道交界的路口設計。而修訂方案亦會變相減少該路口的額外交通流。話雖如此，我們會繼續向政府施壓要求將路口設計由單層改為雙層、增加商用車輛的泊車設施及提供南港島線（西段）的通車時間表。區議會將於下星期討論華富邨重建計劃。

The Housing Authority advised this week that a revised master plan for Wah Fu and the extension up the hill towards Chi Fu will be made available in June. They are taking into account concerns expressed by the community. The intention is to update the Pokfulam Outline Zoning Plan before the end of 2017. In the meantime we will ask the Transport and Housing Bureau to redesign the Pok Fu Lam Road/Victoria Road junction to cope with the future increased traffic flow. We will keep you posted with updates when available.
房屋署今個星期向南區區議員透露他們正在因應收到的意見而修改華富邨重建發展計劃，預計會於年中前發佈詳細重建方案，並於年底前遞交上城規會以便修改薄扶林分區計劃大綱圖。我們會去信運房局要求局方重新設計薄扶林道及域多利道交界的路口以應付額外的交通流。我們會繼續向大家匯報最新進展。

[24/9/2016]
The Housing Authority has released new information on their plans for the Wah Fu Estate redevelopment. They have reduced the footprint near Chi Fu. 8,900 units will be built on five sites. Residents from Wah Fu will be transferred to the new sites so that the old estate can be redeveloped starting 2024. I have raised questions over the capacity of the Pok Fu Lam Road/ Victoria Road junction, the timing of the new MTR, and requested better visuals so that Pokfulam residents can better understand the impacts.
房屋署公布了華富邨重建發展概念圖及相關資訊，他們打算縮減置富花園旁邊用地的發展面積，五幅用地的總建屋量將維持8,900個單位，作華富邨重建戶搬遷所用。2024年落成後，華富邨原址將正式展開重建。我已向署方提出多個問題：薄扶林道／域多利道路口的負荷量、新鐵路落成時間表、景觀問題等等。

We thank the residents who took pictures and videos of container vessel 'MIRAMARIN' emitting dark smoke continuously for over 3 minutes while sailing up East Lamma Channel on 6 September 2018. The Marine Department has now sufficient evidence and initiated prosecution against the ship master.
New laws comes into effect on 1 January 2019 whereby all vessels must use low sulphur fuel when sailing or berthing in Hong Kong waters. It is expected that the emissions of sulphur dioxide and respirable suspended particulates from Ocean Going Vessels will be reduced by 70%.
我們感謝多名薄扶林居民於2018年9月6日拍攝到一隻貨櫃船「MIRAMARIN」排放黑煙的相片及影片。該船隻在東博寮海峽持續排放黑煙超過三分鐘。海事處已掌握足夠證據正在準備檢控船長。
另外，由2019年1月1日起，所有船隻在香港水域內 (不論正在航行或停泊)，都必須使用低硫 (low sulphur) 燃料。政府預期遠洋船隻排放的二氧化硫和可吸入懸浮粒子會減少約70%。

A 38-year-old father accidentally slipped down the cliff and died last weekend (news link - Chinese only). Please note that the crossing over the waterfall is unsafe during rainy season as it is prone to flashfloods. Please note my column on this in AM730. You can support my call for a proper footbridge for a safe pedestrian crossing – click here.
上星期六一名年輕爸爸於瀑布頂懷疑失足墮崖不幸喪失生命（新聞連結）。請切勿於下雨其間橫過瀑布，我於今日的AM730專欄亦有評論這件事。你可以參與我發起的網上聯署要求政府於瀑布灣興建行人橋。
We thank our Pokfulam’s ‘Smoky Vessel Spotters’ who sent us a 3-minute video of a container vessel emitting dark smoke continuously on 1 March 2017 at East Lamma Channel. This evidence is now used by the Marine Department to prosecute the vessel owner/operator. With your videos we can stop smoky vessels for everyone’s benefit!!

For ringelmann chart, you may refer to: http://www.mardep.gov.hk/en/publication/pdf/darksmoke.pdf
To be a smoky vessel spotter, we suggest the following:
- If you see a vessel emitting pretty dark smoke (darker than shade 2) continuously, grab your phone/video camera and record a video of it for more than 3 minutes
- If the dark smoke is non-stop in the video for over 3 minutes, call Marine Department 2385 2791 (24 hours hotline) immediately to report the location, direction and type of vessel. They should send a patrol boat to identify it. You may wish to tell them you have a 3 minute plus video.
- Please let us know too, info@paulzimmerman.hk or 9096-3070. We can help chasing the Marine Department for follow up actions.
- Marine Department’s email address is mi1ohps1@mardep.gov.hk , you may send them the link (dropbox, youtube, etc) of the video. But they prefer you make the report by phonecall first as they can send a patrol right away.
- Should Marine Department proceed with the investigation, you may be invited to provide a statement, this could be done in their Aberdeen Office.
