Key legal question
Whether the compensation for the road land violated equal treatment under Art. 8 BV.
Extracted holding
No unequal treatment was shown; other municipalities' practice was irrelevant and Kappel's revised practice was based on serious, objective reasons.
Extracted reasoning
Equal treatment requires the same authority to treat like cases differently. Kappel had changed practice after a prior guiding decision, and the appellant failed to show comparable cases or inconsistency.
