The Administrative Court of Vaasa dismissed the municipality's decision to remove all elected committee members because the council failed to hear other committee members before the ruling. The municipality argued that only the member whose trust was lost required notification, while the court held that all committee members were necessary parties. Consequently, the decision was voided for violating the principle of hearing all affected individuals.

K:n kaupungin kaupunginvaltuusto oli erottanut kaupungin toimielimeen valitsemansa luottamushenkilöt kuulematta toimielimen muita luottamushenkilöitä kuin valtuuston luottamuksen menettänyttä luottamushenkilöä.

Hallinto-oikeus katsoi, että koska erottamispäätös koski kaikkia toimielimeen valittuja luottamushenkilöitä, myös toimielimen muita luottamushenkilöitä olisi asianosaisina tullut kuulla ennen asian ratkaisemista.
