To whom it may concern

According to the Geoinfo Map service maintained by the Lands Dept., there is no land/lot allocation reference recorded for the properties located at 15 and 17 Barker Rd., as well as the carpark underneath and seemingly abandoned tennis court opposite on the road to the said properties. It is my understanding that these properties have historically comprised the site of the former Victoria Hospital.

Regarding these specific lands/properties, please make available to me the following as required by the Code on Access to information

1. What is the statutory lot number and the official legal classification assigned to the combined or individual lot allocation(s) (e.g. GLA/TLA) located at the said addresses;
2. Is the plot(s) divided into multiple lot allocations;
3. Why are the boundary or divisional lines not displayed as separate polygon outlines as plot boundaries on the public Geoinfo service;
4. Does the site extent explicitly include the land where the aforementioned concrete carpark and tennis court structures sit, and if not, how are these specific structures managed in terms of land allocation;
5. From an asset management standpoint, which governmental department or other entity holds responsibility for the operational custody, active management and maintenance responsibility for the shared driveway and the mentioned carpark and tennis court structures, and any other information your department may hold regarding such responsibilities, so that I may direct further questions regarding such responsibilities directly to them.

If at any point in the processing of this request it is determined that a charge is to be levied pursuant to the Code, please let me know so that I may decide how to proceed. If anything is unclear with the details of my request please do not hesitate to seek clarification. I really appreciate your help and look forward to your prompt response.

Yours faithfully

More than ten days have passed my request was received by LandsD. As prescribed by the Code, information should be made available within ten days of receipt of a written request. I have yet to receive the information nor an interim reply and would be most grateful if my request could receive appropriate and timely processing.
