1139.04 APPEAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION.

   Appeals to the Board of Zoning Appeals may be taken by any person, firm or corporation, or by any officer, board or department of the City, deeming himself or itself to be adversely affected by the decision of an administrative official who has rendered the decision as a result of the official’s authority or responsibility for administration of this Zoning Code. Appeals shall be made no later than fifteen (15) calendar days after the date of any adverse decision and only after the appellant has exhausted all other administrative remedies available under this Code. The appellant shall post security for the cost of all action required for the hearing of the appeal. Within its powers, the Board may reverse or affirm, wholly or in part, or modify the order, requirement, decision or determination as in its opinion ought to be done, and to that end shall have all the powers of the officers from whom the appeal is taken, and it may issue or direct the issuance of a permit or certificate. The Board shall decide all such appeals within ninety (90) days after the date of the hearing except that such time may be extended by mutual consent.
