The Administrative Court dismissed VK Ky's appeal against the municipality's decision to draft a partial master plan for the Rippalanmäki-Ruoke-Vesanka area. The company argued the decision infringed its rights by delaying its mining permit application. The court found the municipality failed to exercise its discretion properly by prioritizing the private mining interest over the established regional plan and recreational reservations.

Kunnanvaltuusto päätti, että Rippalanmäki-Ruoke-Vesanka -alueelle laaditaan osayleiskaava. VK Ky vaati päätöksen kumoamista oikeuttaan loukkaavana. Päätöksen tarkoituksena oli pitkittää yhtiön Vesangan alueelle hakeman maa-aineksen ottamisluvan myöntämistä.

Suunniteltavaksi päätetyn yleiskaavan alueella tapahtunut runsas rakentaminen, vahvistetun seutukaavan mukainen Länsi-Palokan ja Ruokkeen aluetta koskeva ulkoilualuevaraus sekä valittajan toimesta suunniteltu maa-ainesten ottaminen huomioon ottaen lääninoikeus katsoi, että kunnanvaltuusto ei ollut käyttänyt asiassa harkintavaltaansa muuhun kuin mihin se lain mukaan oli käytettävissä.
