Suspected Unauthorized Structures in Amoy Gargens, Ngau Tau Kok
Dear
Sir/Madam,
I
am a resident of Amoy Gardens. I write to enquire about the suspected
unauthorized structures constructed in the podium of Amoy Gardens, Ngau Tau Kok.
I have attached below with 7 pictures and map showing the location of those 7
suspected unauthorized structures. I have the following questions and I hope
that you can reply to me in due course by email, thank you very much:-
1.
whether those 7 structures are unauthorised structures? Is it legally
acceptable?
2.
If yes, why they can be legally acceptable? What is the procedure to
apply for legally acceptable by the Authority? Is the Authority adopting the
same criteria to define whether legal acceptable to such structures and
structures above roof of private premises?
3.
If no, what will the Authority do to these structures?
4.
Who is the owner(s) of those structures? Will they cause danger to nearby
residents?

The UBWs have been inspected by staff of this Department.
With the resources available this Department cannot deal with all the
UBWs at the same time, but has to concentrate on those that are new and/or pose
imminent life and limb hazards. It
is my assessment, on the basis of this inspection, that the UBWs in your
complaint do not come under the above categories and therefore I do not propose
to take immediate action at the present time.
The UBWs in your complaint and others that may be found in the building
have been recorded for future reference and will be kept under review.
Should there be a change in circumstances, appropriate action will be
considered.
An advisory letter would be sent to the owner of the premises to organise
removal of the UBWs voluntarily.
Yours
faithfully,
(C.
