Further to our report on 18 May 2021, a community meeting was held on 3 June 2021. Leadership of HKU's Faculty of Medicine and HKU’s project team presented the extension plans to surrounding residents. Long lists of issues including site selection, traffic, environmental and visual impacts were raised. HKU has promised to provide a written response soon.
Residents are upset with potentially losing yet another green site in Pok Fu Lam – with the Housing Department developing green belt sites near Wah Fu, Cyberport grabbing part of the waterfront park, and HKU seeking a virgin green belt site. A key question is whether HKU really needs a new site, or whether they can redevelop an existing property or develop more suitable locations for laboratories and training facilities.
就我們早前報導的香港大學擴建計劃，港大醫學院的管理層及項目團隊於6月3日與居民會面，簡介項目詳情。會上居民提出多條問題，包括項目選址及所帶來的交通、環境和景觀影響等。港大表示會盡快提供書面回覆。
區內多幅綠化地段先後被用作發展用途：房屋署於華富邨附近徵用多幅綠化地帶（Green Belt） 興建公共房屋，數碼港使用部分海濱公園用地作擴建用途，加上現在港大計劃於綠化地帶擴建醫學院，居民均強烈表示反對。就此港大需回應多個問題：他們是否真的需要另覓新地？還是可以重建他們的現有物業？抑或可選取其他較合適的位置用作擴建實驗室及教學大樓用途？
