Kings Park Cottage Resettlement Area 平房區 [1952-1972]

Cottage Resettlement Area is a type of single-storey temporary housing built by various charitable organizations and taken over by the Resettlement Office (the predecessor of the Hong Kong Housing Authority). It is the early public housing in Hong Kong .
history
The bungalow area was originally permitted to be built on the relevant land in accordance with the approved plan in 1952 under the Emergency (Resettlement Areas) Regulations under the Emergency Regulations Ordinance. Structures are provided for qualified residents to live in. After the residents pay a specified fee, the Municipal Council issues a residence permit commonly known as a "white card" to authorize them to build structures on the land. However, the residents do not own the structures. Under the land title, residents need to pay a quarterly residence permit fee commonly known as "land tax".
In 1958, one of the items of the Resettlement Ordinance was enacted to replace the Emergency (Resettlement Areas) Regulations. The Resettlement Ordinance was later repealed by the Housing Ordinance in 1973, and the new Ordinance empowered The Housing Authority has the power to manage these bungalow areas and enforce the tenancy conditions of the residence licences. With the development of social and public housing, bungalow areas were gradually demolished. In the 1997 Policy Address, the Hong Kong government promised to demolish the remaining five bungalow areas by the end of 2001.
