Key legal question
Whether Helvetia Nostra had standing to challenge the permit
Extracted holding
Standing was recognized in light of the Federal Court's later precedent on organizations entitled to appeal in nature and landscape protection matters.
Extracted reasoning
The permit concerned a task of the Confederation under Arts. 78 Cst. and 2 LPN, because Art. 75b Cst. directly governs secondary residences and serves nature and landscape protection.
