Key legal question
Whether the zoning reclassification unlawfully infringed the appellants' property rights and was disproportionate.
Extracted holding
The reclassification was justified by a sufficient public interest in housing development and was not disproportionate, as it did not prohibit building but allowed denser use consistent with planning objectives.
Extracted reasoning
The court accepted the need to realize the cantonal planning concept and found that the alternative proposed by the appellants was not shown to preserve the same housing potential. The measure remained objectively defensible and did not exceed what was necessary.
