Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the kiosk was protected by the 1997 municipal building permit
Decisione estratta
The court held that even if the 1997 permit could be read as allowing a complete replacement, the kiosk could not benefit from vested-rights protection because no legally effective permit existed without the required cantonal approval and the structure was unlawful under the applicable rules.
Motivazione estratta
The kiosk stood within the water setback, so cantonal consent was required but never granted. A municipal permit without that consent had no legal effect, and the 1997 structure also conflicted materially with then-applicable planning law.
