§ 2.03 RIGHT TO ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL.
   Subd. 1.   If any person shall be aggrieved by any administrative decision of the City Administrator, any other city official or any board or commission not having within its structure an appellate procedure, the aggrieved person is entitled to a full hearing before the Council upon serving a written request therefor upon the Mayor and the City Administrator at least five days prior to any regular Council meeting. The request shall contain a general statement setting forth the administrative decision to be challenged by the appellant. At the hearing, the appellant may present any evidence he or she deems pertinent to the appeal, but the city shall not be required to keep a verbatim record of the proceedings.
   Subd. 2.   The Mayor, or other officer presiding at the hearing, may, in the interest of justice or to comply with the time requirements and on his or her own motion or the motion of the appellant, the City Administrator or a member of the Council, adjourn the hearing to a more convenient time or place, but the time or place shall be fixed and determined before adjournment so as to avoid the necessity for formal notice of reconvening.
