Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellants had standing under Art. 88 OG to challenge the financing decision.
Extrahierter Entscheid
They lacked a legally protected interest; as municipal taxpayers and, for one appellant, a municipal councillor, they were only asserting general public interests.
Extrahierte Begründung
The complaint attacked the municipal choice not to levy improvement contributions, a political question concerning public administration. Under Art. 88 OG, mere membership in a public body or taxpayer status does not suffice; the appellants were not affected more intensely than other municipal taxpayers.
