ATA/589/1998•Public interest justified listing of the Choffat house
ATA/589/1998Cour de justice / Chambre administrative15 sept. 1998Dismissed
Extrait par Omnilex
The case concerned the planned protection of the Choffat house. The owner argued that the authority had acted inconsistently and that the financial burden and study costs should prevent listing. The court held that the building's characteristics created a sufficient public interest in protection and that no misleading assurances had been given by the authority. The owner’s financial interest could not override the public interest in restricting ownership.
LPMNS art. 4; protection of a building and balancing against the owner's interests. A building may be classified as a protected monument where its characteristics justify preservation. The balancing of interests gives decisive weight to the public interest in heritage protection; the owner's merely financial interest, including expenses already incurred for studies, does not prevail. The principles of good faith and the prohibition of abuse of rights are not violated absent inaccurate assurances or misleading information from the authority (consid. 1-3).

LPMNS.4
Résumé
Vu les caractéristiques de la maison Choffat, il existe un intérêt public à son classement. Aucune promesse ou renseignement inexacts n'ont été donnés par l'autorité à l'intimée, de sorte que les principes de la bonne foi et de l'interdiction de l'abus de droit n'ont pas été vidés. Ainsi, l'intérêt purement financier du propriétaire, en dépit des frais d'études engagés, ne peut l'emporter sur l'intérêt public à une restriction à la propriété.

Whether the Choffat house met the conditions for protection and listing under LPMNS.4.
Yes. In view of the building's characteristics, there was a public interest in classifying it as protected.
The house's features justified heritage protection, and the owner's purely financial interest, even considering study costs incurred, could not outweigh the public interest in restricting property rights.
Whether the authority breached good faith or abused rights by giving incorrect information or assurances to the owner.
No. No inaccurate promise or misleading information had been given by the authority.
Because the authority had not provided incorrect assurances or misleading statements, the principles of good faith and the prohibition of abuse of rights were not violated.
