Not specifically, no. That is not a difference between an urban area and a priority area. An urban area refers to a whole town, settlement or village which might include some regeneration sites, brownfield sites or greenfield sites on the edge or wherever, whereas a priority area plan zooms in to a particular brownfield, regeneration or greenfield site. That is more akin to a lot of the LAPs in growth areas where a new area might be covered by an LAP.
