Key legal question
Whether the objection against the building application was filed in time and in proper form under cantonal law.
Extracted holding
The objection was not validly filed in time because merely showing the written objection to commission members, while keeping it in the objector's possession, did not amount to filing with the competent authority.
Extracted reasoning
A written objection must reach the competent authority's sphere of control; mere oral protest or presentation of the document is insufficient, and there was no proof that the municipality received it before the deadline.
