What is a P.L.U.?
The P.L.U. divides the municipal territory into several zones according to their characteristics (housing, individual, collective, town centre, economic activity, green space, nature, etc.) and sets out the projects envisaged by the municipality. It sets out the general rules and easements for land use throughout the municipality. Its provisions affect our daily lives (housing, transport, parking, commerce, economic activity, culture, sport, the environment, etc.).
