Zoning of the PLan Local d’Urbanisme of the municipality of Ver-les-Chartres (28403), in Eure-et-Loir

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 restrictive (Art. R.123-9). Areas already urbanised are classified as U areas where existing or under construction public facilities have sufficient capacity to serve the buildings to be installed. The areas of a natural nature of the municipality intended to be opened for urbanisation depending on whether or not the existing facilities on the periphery are sufficient to serve the buildings to be installed may be classified as AU zones. There are two types of AU zone: “constructible” and “inconstructible” AU zones. Areas A may be classified as areas of the municipality, whether or not equipped, to be protected due to the agronomic, organic or economic potential of agricultural land. Areas of the municipality equipped or not may be classified as N zones, 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, the existence of forestry or their nature as natural areas. — Within zones N, may be demarcated: areas within which the right to be built can be transferred (transfer of COS), — areas of limited size and capacity where construction is possible under the condition of location and density.《城市规划法规》（Urban Planning Code）将本地规划方案中需纳入管控的四类区域（条款R.123-5至R.123-8）划分为：城市建设区（urban areas，U）、待城市化区域（areas to be urbanised，AU）、农业区域（agricultural areas，A）以及自然与林区（natural and forest areas，N）。前述四类区域需通过一份或多份图形文件完成划定，且每类区域均配套专属管理规定。本附属法规可根据建设用途的不同制定差异化规则，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。上述区域分类具有限制性要求（详见条款R.123-9）。已完成城市化的区域将被划为U类区域，判定标准为：现有或在建的公共设施具备足够服务能力，可满足拟入驻建筑的使用需求。本市政管辖范围内拟纳入城市化开发的自然属性区域，可根据其周边现有公共设施是否足以服务拟入驻建筑，被划为AU类区域。AU类区域分为两类：可建设AU区与不可建设AU区。A类区域可被划为本市政管辖范围内的保护区域，无论是否已配套公共设施，保护依据为农用地的农艺价值、生态属性或经济潜力。本市政管辖范围内的区域，无论是否已配套公共设施，均可被划为N类区域，其保护依据包括：场地品质、自然栖息地、景观及其价值（尤其从美学、历史或生态维度）、林业资源的存在，或其作为自然区域的固有属性。在N类区域内，可进一步划定两类子区域：—— 可转让建筑权区域（transfer of COS）；—— 规模与容量受限的区域，此类区域仅在符合选址与密度要求的前提下方可开展建设。
