Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the municipality had standing under Art. 89 BGG to challenge the party costs award
Extrahierter Entscheid
The municipality lacked standing because it was not affected like a private person and the costs interest did not amount to a qualifying sovereign interest.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under Art. 89(1) BGG, municipalities may appeal only restrictively; ordinary financial interest in receiving higher party compensation is insufficient, and legal-correctness concerns do not establish standing.
