Kernrechtsfrage
Whether Arosa’s fee system for municipal solid-waste financing violated federal waste-law requirements.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. A fee based on freshwater consumption lacked a sufficiently close link to the amount of waste and was incompatible with Art. 32a USG.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court held that waste financing must be cost-covering and causation-based; water consumption may work for wastewater charges but not as the decisive criterion for waste fees.
