The Urban Planning Code defines four types of areas regulated in the local planning plan (R.123-5 to 8): urban areas (U), areas to be urbanised (AU), agricultural areas (A) and natural and forest areas (N). These areas shall be demarcated on one or more graphic documents. A regulation is attached to each area. The by-law may lay down different rules, depending on whether the purpose of the construction relates to housing, hotel accommodation, offices, commerce, crafts, industry, agricultural or forestry operations or warehouse functions. These categories are limited (Art. R.123-9).The areas already urbanised where existing or under construction public facilities have sufficient capacity to serve the buildings to be installed are classified as U-areas.The natural areas of the municipality may be classified as AU zones, which are intended to be opened for urbanisation depending on whether or not the existing equipment on the periphery is sufficient to serve the buildings to be installed. There are two types of AU zone: “constructible” and “inconstructible” areas.Can be classified as zones A, the areas of the municipality, whether or not equipped, to be protected due to the agronomic, biological or economic potential of agricultural land.Can be classified as N zones, the areas of the municipality equipped or not, to be protected either by reason of the quality of the sites, natural habitats, landscapes and their interest, in particular from the aesthetic, historical or ecological point of view, either the existence of a forestry operation or their nature as natural areas.- Within the N zones, can be: perimeters in which possibilities for the transfer of the right to build can be carried out (transfer of COS),- areas of limited size and capacity where construction is possible under the condition of implantation and density.

《城市规划法典》（Urban Planning Code）明确了地方规划方案中四类受监管区域（条款R.123-5至8）：城市建成区（U）、待城市化区域（AU）、农业区域（A）以及自然与森林区域（N）。前述区域须在一份或多份规划图件中完成划定。
每类区域均附有专属监管规则。本配套细则可根据建设用途的差异制定差异化规则，建设用途涵盖住宅、酒店住宿、办公、商业、手工业、工业、农业或林业作业以及仓储功能。此类用途类别受到明确限定（条款R.123-9）。
已建成区域中，若现有或在建的公共设施具备足够承载力以服务待建设建筑，则归类为U类区域。
本市行政管辖范围内的自然区域可被划归为AU地带，该类区域是否开放城市化改造，取决于周边现有配套设施是否足以支撑待建设建筑的使用需求。AU地带分为两类：“可建设区域”与“不可建设区域”。
可归类为A类区域的，是指市域范围内因农用地具备农艺、生物或经济潜力而需要予以保护的区域，无论其是否配备配套设施。
可归类为N类区域的，是指市域范围内无论是否配备配套设施，均需予以保护的区域，保护依据包括场地品质、自然栖息地、景观及其美学、历史或生态价值，或是存在林业经营活动，抑或其本身属于自然区域属性。
在N类区域范围内，可进一步细分为：
- 可开展建筑权转移作业的边界范围（COS转移）；
- 规模与承载力受限，仅在满足选址要求与密度限制的前提下方可进行建设的区域。
