Sintesi Omnilex

The Administrative Court held that a builder cannot derive a claim to equal treatment from the fact that other constructions had been erected below the statutory forest setback without the forest authorities' consent or knowledge. Such unlawful practices do not bind the authorities or justify a further deviation from the forest setback requirement.

Massima Omnilex

§ 9 Kantonales Forstgesetz; equal treatment and unlawful comparative practice: A building applicant cannot invoke the principle of equal treatment to demand approval contrary to the statutory forest setback merely because similar structures exist elsewhere. Where the earlier encroachments were erected without the knowledge or consent of the competent forest authorities, they do not constitute a lawful comparator and create no entitlement to analogous treatment (consid. not specified).
