AC4 easement plate related to the protection of architectural, urban and landscape heritage — digitised version DDT 63

Public utility easements (SUPs) are administrative limitations on the right to property, they are established for the benefit of public persons, concessionaires of public works or public works, private persons engaged in an activity in the public interest. The collection and conservation of public utility easements is a sovereign task of the State, which must bring them to the attention of local and regional authorities so that they may annex them to their urban planning documents. The public utility easements concerned are those defined by Articles L. 126-1 and R. 126-1 of the Urban Planning Code and their annexes. The AC4 type SUPs are the result of the architectural, urban and landscape heritage protection zones (ZPPAUP) which today evolve into “Agreement of Architecture and Heritage Areas” (AVAP). The aim of this new scheme is to develop a new approach to the qualitative management of the territories by integrating the sustainable development objectives into the heritage and urban approach of the ZPPAUP. In the ZPPAUPs still in force and in AVAPs, works having the object or effect of transforming or modifying the appearance of a building, whether built or not, are subject to prior authorisation, which may be accompanied by special requirements.
