Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the permits and fee decisions issued by the Kreisbauamt were void for lack of competence.
Extrahierter Entscheid
Yes. Because the competent department, not the Kreisbauamt, had to grant the permit, the decisions were issued by an incompetent authority and were void.
Extrahierte Begründung
Lack of subject-matter and functional competence is a serious defect leading to nullity unless the authority has general decision-making power or nullity would conflict with legal certainty. The Kreisbauamt had no general authority here, and legal certainty allowed a finding of nullity.
