Questione giuridica chiave
Whether authorization to alienate six rented apartments in two blocks of three had to be granted under the LDTR balancing of interests.
Decisione estratta
The public interest in preserving the rental housing stock outweighed the appellant's purely economic interest; the refusal was not arbitrary.
Motivazione estratta
A sale in very small blocks facilitates a progressive dismantling of a rental building and undermines the LDTR purpose. The appellant did not show a special private interest making the transaction necessary, and the short time between acquisition and resale suggested a commercial operation.
