Questão jurídica principal
Whether the chalet's balcony/covered area had to be included in built-area, setback, and façade-length calculations under communal rules.
Decisão extraída
The municipal interpretation excluding the 2-meter covered balcony area from built-area calculations and related setback/length calculations was not arbitrary.
Fundamentação extraída
The communal rule on built area expressly excludes balconies; reading it together with the rule on usual 2-meter eaves for two-storey chalets, the municipality could reasonably treat the covered area as a balcony and disregard it, especially since the practice was reserved for exceptional cases and was not disproportionate in result.
