zone á urbaniser par priorité (ZUP) (F)

priority urban development area. A housing area that a public authority considered should be redeveloped as a matter of urgency (similar to an action area in English planning law). Since 1975, superseded by a zone d'intervention foncière.

P. Soler-Couteaux. Droit de l'urbanisme (2ème éd. 1997), §§ 17-18.

zone d'aménagement concerté (ZAC)(F)

comprehensive development area. An area of land that has been designated by a planning authority for comprehensive development, but not as a matter of immediate priority. A ZAC is controlled essentially by a collective or a public authority that aims to acquire land to facilitate comprehensive development (French Law of 3 January 1968, art. 16; C. urb. L. 311 et seq.).

zone d'aménagement différé (ZAD)(F)

deferred (or future) development area. An area that is likely to be designated a zone d'intervention fonciére at a future date, but is currently not considered as one that requires priority treatment. The purpose of designating a ZAD is to prevent land speculation by giving a public authority a droit de préemption (right of pre-emption) on any land in the area that is offered for sale after the designation (Law of 26 July 1962, arts 7-12; C. urb. L 212-1 et seq.).

zone de protection du patrimoine architectural, urbain et paysage (ZPPAUP)(F)

conservation area. An area where historic buildings and sites are to be protected by strict controls over architecture and development (Law of 7 January 1983, arts. 70-73).
