Question juridique clé
Whether sectors 2, 3 and 4 on the parcel had forest character under federal and cantonal forest law
Solution extraite
No. The cantonal court could validly deny forest character to sectors 2, 3 and 4, treating them as park-like or otherwise excluded from the statutory forest concept.
Motifs extraits
The court deferred to the factual findings that sector 2 was a small park-like grove, and that sectors 3 and 4 were managed ornamental or landscape plantings lacking forest structure and falling within the park/garden exception of Art. 2 para. 3 LFo.
