Key legal question
Whether the cantonal court violated the right to be heard by deciding after the first exchange of briefs without ordering a second exchange ex officio.
Extracted holding
No violation was shown, because the appellant did not request a reply opportunity, had received the other parties' submissions in time, and could already have raised the neighbour-comparison argument earlier; the court also allowed an additional supplementary brief.
Extracted reasoning
The disputed appeal challenged only a refusal to reconsider final administrative decisions. No new factual elements were introduced in the responses, so a second exchange was not required.
