What would the URI be for a placetype?

Something like: https://www.whosonfirst.org/placetype/localadmin ? or would it be something else?

Right now, you can find placetype information on the whosonfirst.org site using the following format:

https://www.whosonfirst.org/docs/placetypes/#localadmin

I'm looking for a URI, not a URL. See: https://dev.to/flippedcoding/what-is-the-difference-between-a-uri-and-a-url-4455

For instance, this is the URI
http://www.wikidata.org/entity/Q60
but this is the URL
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60

What would the URI be for each placetype? I propose something like:
http://www.whosonfirst.org/placetype/localadmin
would that work? or would you like something else?

Whatever is chosen, it should ideally be added to the documentation.
