Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appeal against the cantonal judgment was admissible and whether the municipality had standing to complain of a violation of autonomy.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The municipality had standing to raise municipal-autonomy complaints; the appeal was otherwise admissible except for the standalone request for declaratory relief.
Extrahierte Begründung
The judgment affected the municipality in its sovereign powers because its refusal was annulled and it was ordered to decide anew. The declaratory request had no independent significance.
