The Administrative Court dismissed the taxpayer's claim for VAT refunds regarding a municipal sports center. The municipality argued that operating the facility was a business activity, while the tax authority contended it was a public service. The court ruled that the mixed revenue model and commercial-like operations satisfied the legal definition of business activity under the VAT Act.
