Legislator summary

AI generated

A municipal council attempted to delegate significant responsibilities to the municipal leadership organization, but the court ruled that while some tasks can be delegated under specific conditions, the core competencies of the executive remain non-transferable, affirming that the municipal executive retains ultimate leadership authority at the municipal level, even in extraordinary circumstances.

OGVE 2018/19 Nr. 45

Art. 89 Abs. 3 und 94 Abs. 1 Ziff. 5 KV

Delegation von Aufgaben des Gemeinderats an die Organe der Gemeindeführungsorganisation.

Zwar ist es möglich, einzelne Aufgabenbereiche unter bestimmten Voraussetzungen der Gemeindeführungsorganisation zu übertragen. Der Kern der Kompetenzen bleibt aber unübertragbar. Eine kommunale Exekutive bleibt auch in ausserordentlichen Lagen die oberste Führungsgewalt auf Gemeindeebene.

Vorprüfungsbericht des Amts für Justiz vom 18. September 2019.
