Kernrechtsfrage
Whether refusal to hold an on-site inspection violated the right to be heard and Article 6 § 1 ECHR
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The request was only an evidentiary motion; the cantonal court could refuse the inspection after an anticipatory assessment because the plans already showed the relevant parcel configuration.
Extrahierte Begründung
A public hearing under Article 6 § 1 ECHR requires a clear and unequivocal request for debates, which was lacking. Under Article 29(2) Cst., the inspection was not necessary because the file allowed the facts to be assessed.
