The appellants challenged a Regierungsrat decision concerning a mobile phone antenna in an agricultural zone. The Verwaltungsgericht rejected the request to restore the time limit and held that the complaint filed on 31 January 2005 could not be entered because the deadline had been missed. In the merits discussion, the court confirmed the antenna’s relative site dependence under Art. 24 RPG, after assessing alternative locations and spatial-planning interests. It also stated that appellate authorities apply the law ex officio and are not bound by the parties’ legal reasoning.
Art. 24 RPG; relative site dependence of a mobile phone antenna outside the building zone; restoration of time limits and admissibility. A mobile phone antenna may be regarded as relatively site-bound outside the building zone if no suitable and reasonable location exists within the building zones. In the spatial-planning balancing of interests, alternative sites outside the building zones must be examined and the degree of exploitation of emission limit values may be taken into account. On appeal, the authority applies the law ex officio within the object of the dispute and is not bound by the parties’ legal assessment (consid. 2/a).
336 Verwaltungsgericht 2005 tionenrecht nicht korrespondierte (siehe BGE 114 Ib 69 ff.). Es ist zwar denkbar, im Bereich der Fristwiederherstellung eine andere Regelung zu treffen, doch gehört dies auf die Ebene des Gesetzes. 3. Zusammenfassend ist damit festzuhalten, dass das Wiederherstellungsbegehren unbegründet und deshalb abzuweisen ist. Auf die Beschwerde vom 31. Januar 2005 darf wegen Fristversäumnis nicht eingetreten werden. 66 Legitimation. Standortgebundenheit einer Mobilfunkantenne in der Landwirtschaftszone.

Whether the request to restore the time limit should be granted.
The restoration request was unfounded and had to be rejected.
The excerpt states that the requirements for reinstatement were not met; any different rule would have to be created by legislation, not by judicial decision.
Whether the late complaint could be entered into despite missing the participation deadline in the lower-instance proceedings.
No entry could be made because the complaint period had expired.
The missed deadline for participation in the prior proceedings led to a lack of formal standing to complain, so the appeal filed on 31 January 2005 was time-barred.
Whether the mobile antenna was relatively site-bound under Art. 24 RPG outside the building zone.
Relative site dependence was affirmed because no suitable and reasonable location within the building zones was available.
The court accepted the need for the installation outside the building zones after examining alternative sites and the spatial-planning balancing of interests.
How alternative sites outside the building zones should be assessed in the balancing of interests, including utilization of emission limit values.
Alternative sites had to be evaluated, with the extent of exploitation of emission limit values to be weighed in the planning balance.
The court discussed comparative assessment of more or less intensive use of the limit values as part of the spatial-planning interest balancing.
Whether the authorities were bound by the parties' legal arguments or had to apply the law ex officio.
Within the subject matter of the dispute, the appellate authority applied the law ex officio and was not bound by the parties' legal view.
The court relied on the principle of official application of the law; the parties' legal reasoning was not decisive.
Whether the parties had to be heard.
The right to be heard remained applicable.
The excerpt lists the hearing obligation as a procedural principle addressed by the court.
