Questão jurídica principal
Whether the exception under § 29 KBR allowed reduction of the building distance for the planned extension
Decisão extraída
No. The existing building was not shown to be unreasonably or impractically developed without the distance reduction, and the owner could pursue other feasible extension options.
Fundamentação extraída
For an already built-up plot, § 29 KBR is interpreted restrictively. The decisive question is not whether the proposed variant is optimal, but whether the property cannot otherwise be built on or reasonably used. That was not the case here.
