The Federal Administrative Court (BVerwG 4. Senat) granted leave to appeal, admitting the revision to the full Federal Administrative Court due to the need for clarification on whether residential construction projects meet the statutory requirements for healthy living conditions under § 34 Abs. 1 Satz 2 BauGB when located within the 100-year flood line (as defined by § 74 Abs. 2 Nr. 2 WHG). The dispute concerned the permissibility of a housing development project situated in an area subject to a 100-year flood probability, challenging the lower instance's assessment of whether such location violates public law standards for residential zones. The decisive legal basis involves the intersection of the Federal Building Code (§ 34 BauGB) regarding healthy living conditions and the Water Code (§ 74 WHG) regarding flood risk zones, specifically the question of whether the mere presence within a 100-year flood line automatically precludes the approval of residential construction without further individual danger assessment.
