Any person aggrieved or any officer, department, board or bureau of the county may appeal to the zoning board to review any order, requirement, decision or determination made by the enforcing officer in connection with the sections herein pertaining to zoning. (Ord. 8/53, 1-18-1954)
Such appeals shall be made within ninety (90) days from the date of the action appealed from, by filing with the enforcing officer and the zoning board, a notice of appeal, specifying the grounds thereof. The enforcing officer and the city clerk shall forthwith transmit to the zoning board all papers constituting the record upon which the action appealed from was taken.
An appeal stays all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the enforcing officer certifies to the zoning board, after the notice of the appeal has been filed with him, that by reasons of facts stated in the certificate a stay would, in his opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case, proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by a restraining order which may be granted by the zoning board, or by a court of record on application, on notice to the enforcing officer and on due cause shown. (Ord. 8/53, 1-18-1954)
The zoning board shall fix a reasonable time for the hearing of the appeal and give due notice thereof to the parties and decide the same within a reasonable time. Upon the hearing, any party may appear in person, by agent or by attorney. The zoning board may reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may modify the order, requirement, decision or determination as in its opinion ought to be made in the premises, and to that and shall have all the powers of the enforcing officer. (Ord. 8/53, 1-18-1954)
