Key legal question
Whether Art. 8(2) HAG/FR applies to tank-station shops and permits extended evening opening hours.
Extracted holding
Tank-station shops do not fall within the exception; the municipal restriction was not arbitrary.
Extracted reasoning
The court accepted a restrictive interpretation of the cantonal provision. Tank shops with mixed assortments are not necessarily 'food shops'; the legislature and referendum materials supported excluding them, and the interpretation was not manifestly untenable.
