Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the canton could designate the Landrat as immediate instance under Art. 86(3) BGG for the concession decision.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The concession decision was not one with predominantly political character because it contained reviewable legal obligations and environmental requirements.
Extrahierte Begründung
Although water-concession grants have a political component, this decision regulated rights and duties in detail, including compliance with water, environmental, nature and landscape protection law. Such matters are justiciable and do not fall within the narrow exception of Art. 86(3) BGG.
