Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the cantonal government had to hear the appeal against the access plans despite the expired deadline.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The 30-day appeal period started with publication in the cantonal gazette, so the appeal filed on 14 December 2009 was late.
Extrahierte Begründung
Under cantonal planning law, appeal deadlines run from publication in the cantonal gazette. Reliance on the local newspaper notice did not justify late filing, especially because the appellant was represented by counsel who was expected to know the applicable procedural rules and monitor the gazette.
