Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the new hearing procedure for the expert report violated the right to be heard.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. In this zoning/building-permit setting, future objectors were not yet parties when the report was commissioned; hearing them after publication but before the permit decision was sufficient.
Extrahierte Begründung
The expert report was part of the permit file and had to exist before public notice. Objectors could raise objections to the expert and the report during the objection procedure and on appeal, which gave them a meaningful opportunity to be heard.
