Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the municipalities had standing to file a constitutional complaint based on municipal autonomy in a dispute over road buyout compensation.
Extrahierter Entscheid
They were entitled to complain only insofar as they alleged a violation of municipal autonomy, but no such autonomy existed in the disputed compensation question.
Extrahierte Begründung
The case concerned the financing of a sovereign public task. The cantonal law did not leave the municipalities a sufficiently autonomous decision-making sphere regarding entitlement to and amount of the buyout sum.
