Supreme Court allows partial invalidity of zoning plan section due to lack of heritage conservation coordination.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court of Poland allowed the Governor's decision declaring Section 5 of a municipal zoning plan invalid while upholding the rest of the plan. The municipality argued that the plan was flawed because it failed to coordinate with the Heritage Conservation Officer regarding protected areas, yet the court found the procedural defect did not render the entire plan void. The court ruled that since the Heritage Officer only raised objections after the plan was adopted, the invalidity is limited strictly to the specific section containing the conflicting provisions.
