If such approval was granted by his office, it would be subject to such terms and conditions including, inter alia, charging of rent or other fees as might be imposed; and (d) to note the comments of the Chief Building Surveyor/New Territories West, Buildings Department that the granting of planning permission should not be construed as an acceptance of any unauthorized building works on the application site, which were still subject to enforcement action under the Buildings Ordinance (BO). According to his record, there was no building plan submission ever made to or approved by his office in relation to the structures under the current application. No retrospective approval could be granted by the Building Authority under BO for those existing or newly erected unauthorized structures as identified on the application site. [The Chairman thanked Mr. Y.S. Lee, STP/TWK, for his attendance to answer Members’ enquiries. He left the meeting at this point.] [Mr. K.T.

Mr. K.T. Ng, STP/TWK, presented the application and covered the following aspects as detailed in the Paper :
- 9 - (a) background to the application highlighting the application was for renewal of a s.16 planning approval, under application No. A/TWW/79, approved by the Committee on 27.5.2005 for temporary shop and services (retail shop) use for a period of 6 years at the application site (the Site); (b) the renewal of planning approval for temporary shop and services (retail shop) use for a period of 6 years; (c) departmental comments – no objection/adverse comment from concerned government departments was received; (d) during the statutory publication period, one public comment was received. The commenter raised strong objection to the current application as the application occupied part of the “Government, Institution or Community” (“G/IC”) zone. He also claimed that the Site was the only G/IC area in the community. District Officer (Tsuen Wan) advised that he had sought the comments from the Tsuen Wan District Council members, the Chairman and Vice-chairman of Tsuen Wan Rural Area Committee, the Village Representatives of Sham Tseng Village, the Incorporated Owners of Rhine Garden and the Owners’ Committee of Bellagio and they were asked to submit their feedback directly to Planning Department (PlanD). He had no comment on the application provided that no objection was received from the public; and (e) the PlanD’s views – PlanD had no objection to the application based on the assessment made in paragraph 12 of the Paper. The application for existing temporary commercial development at the Site was a renewal of the previously approved application No. A/TWW/79, with no change in the major development parameters of site area, gross floor area and building height. The originally designated “G/IC” use of a fire station cum ambulance depot on the Site had already been developed at the “G/IC” site next to Rhine Garden. Currently, the Site was not designated for any “G/IC” uses. The existing temporary shop and services (retail shop) use
