Resumo Omnilex

The appellant challenged the administrative procedure as formally defective because he was not invited to a site inspection conducted by the competent authorities. The Government Council held that, under consistent cantonal practice, the right to be heard in administrative proceedings is satisfied by allowing written submissions. There is no legal entitlement to the holding of a site inspection or to participation in one ordered for reasons of expediency. The alleged procedural defect was therefore rejected and the complaint dismissed.

Sumário Omnilex

Right to be heard in administrative proceedings; no entitlement to a site inspection or to participation in an inspection ordered ex officio for reasons of expediency. The parties' procedural rights are satisfied where they may present written submissions; the refusal to invite a party to a site inspection does not constitute a violation of the right to be heard absent a statutory or other specific right to participate.

Entscheidpublikation VVGE 1971/75 Nr. 15, S. 21:

Verwaltungsverfahren.

Keine Verletzung des rechtlichen Gehörs durch Verweigerung eines Augenscheins.

Entscheid des Regierungsrates vom 17. April 1972 (Nr. 1729).

Der Rekurrent macht vorerst geltend, das Verfahren weise einen formellen Mangel auf, indem er zu dem von den zuständigen Instanzen durchgeführten Augenschein nicht eingeladen worden sei.

Gemäss konstanter kantonaler Praxis wird im Verwaltungsverfahren den Parteien das rechtliche Gehör in der Weise gewährt, dass ihnen die Möglichkeit zu einer schriftlichen Eingabe offensteht. Dies war denn auch vorliegend der Fall. Einen Rechtsanspruch auf Durchführung eines Augenscheins oder zur Teilnahme an einem von den Verwaltungsbehörden nach Zweckmässigkeitsüberlegungen angesetzten Augenschein besteht für die Parteien nicht. Von einem Verfahrensmangel kann daher diesbezüglich im vorliegenden Fall nicht gesprochen werden.

Fundamentação extraída

The cantonal practice satisfies the right to be heard through written submissions. A site inspection is discretionary, and parties have no legal right to its conduct or to attend it.
