Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the cantonal court arbitrarily applied the municipal rules on built surface for a terraced building.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The strict use of the level with the largest plan dimensions excluded lower terraced volumes that should count toward built surface, leading to an arbitrary result.
Motivazione estratta
The municipal rule on built surface could not be read to ignore substantial lower-level projections in a terraced building where the zoning ratio is meant to preserve free space, air, sunlight, and landscape values.
