Key legal question
Whether the administrative law appeal against refusal of the building permit was admissible
Extracted holding
The administrative law appeal was inadmissible because the decisive dispute concerned cantonal planning law, while the environmental-law questions raised were only obiter dicta and not the true basis of refusal.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 34(3) LAT, only public-law appeal is normally open; administrative law appeal is available here only insofar as federal environmental law is at stake. The decisive ground of refusal was non-conformity with the binding local plan, so the environmental objections did not make the administrative appeal admissible.
