A. Any appeal petition shall be filed with the city clerk within fourteen (14) calendar days after the date of the decision. In the event the last day of the filing period falls on a nonbusiness day, the appeal period shall be extended to include the next business day. The timely filing of the appeal petition is jurisdictional. The fee schedule for appeal petitions shall be approved by the council and maintained on file by the director of finance administration.
B. If an appeal petition, filed pursuant to subsection A of this section, is withdrawn at any time prior to the council decision on the appeal petition, then subsequent to such withdrawal, the council may review the decision which was the subject of the withdrawn petition. Such review may be ordered by motion of the council duly adopted within fifteen (15) calendar days after the appeal petition is withdrawn. If the council orders a review of such a decision, the effectiveness of such decision shall be stayed until council review is final. (1962 Code § 1-6.102; amd. Ord. 94-O-2211, eff. 9-2-1994)
