Questão jurídica principal
Whether the artificial pond outside the building zone qualified as a site-dependent structure under Art. 24(1)(a) RPG.
Decisão extraída
The pond was a construction requiring an exception permit, but as built it did not qualify for authorization because its design contained garden-architectural elements and was not sufficiently site-dependent in the permitted form.
Fundamentação extraída
The court accepted that ecologically created wetlands outside the building zone can in principle serve a public interest and be site-dependent if biologically and ecologically properly designed. However, the specific pond combined ecological function with decorative features that made it appear as garden architecture and therefore created unacceptable effects at the boundary of the building zone.
