Forester Ordered to Remove Unauthorized Firewood Storage Building

A forester in the region has been ordered to remove a firewood storage building he constructed on rented property. The building authority and the court have both ruled against him, stating it violates regulations and does not serve an agricultural or forestry business.

The forester initially applied for a building permit, but the district office rejected it. The authority prohibited the construction, citing that it did not meet the criteria for an agricultural or forestry business. The forester, operating under a 'general forest operation', argued his case but was dismissed by the administrative court.

The court's decision highlighted that the forester's operation did not qualify as a forestry business, thus the firewood storage was not privileged. The forester was required to remove the structure, which measured 150 square meters, exceeding the permissible size of 100 square meters set by the authority's rules. Failure to comply may result in a penalty.

The forester has exhausted his legal options and must now remove the firewood storage building. The court's decision underscores the importance of adhering to building regulations and ensuring that structures serve the intended purpose as per their classification.
