Areas of the POS (doc. 28.01.2005) of the municipality of Argenvières

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.《城市规划法规》（Urban Planning Code）规定了本地规划方案中受监管的四类区域（条款编号R.123-5至R.123-8）：城市建成区（urban areas，缩写U）、待城市化区域（areas to be urbanised，缩写AU）、农业区域（agricultural areas，缩写A）以及自然与林业区域（natural and forest areas，缩写N）。上述区域需在一份或多份规划图件中完成划定。每一类区域均配套有专属管控规则。本附属条例可根据建设用途的差异制定差异化管控细则，建设用途涵盖住宅、酒店经营、办公、商业、手工业、工业、农业或林业生产以及仓储功能，前述用途类别受条款R.123-9的规制。 已完成城市化，且现有或在建公共设施的服务能力足以覆盖待建设建筑的区域，将被归类为U类城市建成区。 本市的自然区域可被归类为AU类待城市化区域，此类区域是否开放用于城市化开发，取决于其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类待城市化区域分为两类：可建设区域与不可建设区域。 本市范围内，因农业用地所具备的农艺、生物或经济潜力而需要予以保护的区域（无论是否配备配套设施），均可被归类为A类农业区域。 本市范围内，无论是否配备配套设施的区域，若因场地品质、自然栖息地、景观及其美学、历史或生态价值需要加以保护，或是因存在林业作业活动、其本身属于天然区域属性，则均可被归类为N类自然与林业区域。 在N类区域内部，可进一步划分为： - 可开展建筑权转让的边界范围（即COS转让）； - 规模与容量受限的区域，此类区域需满足建设选址与开发密度要求后方可进行开发建设。
