Un 80 year old hunter he managed to win a very particular appeal, what he himself called a "question of principle". Man will be able to practice hunting in the area of rodeza, which is part of the territory of Tres, in the province of Trento, but which in 1948 had been granted to the Taio game reserve. The elder confessed that he no longer went hunting, but that he still had to resolve this situation. There were three appeals, the first to the hunting management body, then to the Province of Trento and finally to the TAR. Administrative judges they proved him right ten years ago, but a provincial decree had led to the discussion in the Council of State.
L'Adige reconstructed the story: “The Rodeza area was once a hunting ground for the Taio shotguns. In 1948 a Prefectural Decree was issued on the new Rodeza reserve, where the hunters of Taio could exercise exclusive hunting; which enjoyed two reserves, the one downstream, and the one in question, upstream. This happens elsewhere: in Flavon with Alpe Flavona, Nanno with Alpe Nana, Cis with Bordolona, Magnani remembers. The difference is that Taio does not enjoy a mountain territory; the only one was precisely that of Rodeza. The reserve downstream is practically impassable; so much so that from the more than 40 hunters of the past there are now only a dozen, because the “reserve” downstream is very urbanized, there are the state road, the railway, the Iscle landfill ”.
The newspaper continues: "The Council of State states that" it is undisputed by the appellant itself (the Province) that the man has exercised the hunting activity (alla Rodeza) in a position similar to the figure of the aggregate, from 1976 to 1992, for two days a week with regular permission. Underlining the theses of the Province (imposing the exercise of hunting on an entire reserve, and preventing it on a limited and circumscribed area of the same), the Council of State affirms that "it does not note the absence of specific regulatory provisions, being the provincial law itself to contemplate this possibility ". For these, and other considerations, the appeal of the Province was rejected ”.
