(a) Any person affected by any notice and order which has been issued in connection with the enforcement of any provisions of this Code may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the Planning Commission, provided that such person shall file in the office of the Zoning Inspector a written petition requesting such hearing and setting forth the name, address and phone number of the petitioner and a brief statement of the grounds for such hearing and appeal from any order of the Zoning Inspector. Petitions shall be filed within ten days after the day the notice and order is served. Upon receipt of such petition, the Zoning Inspector shall set a time and place for the hearing before the Planning Commission and shall give the petitioner written notice thereof. The hearing shall be commenced within thirty days after a petition has been filed. At such hearing the petitioner shall be given an opportunity to be heard and to show cause why such notice and order should be modified or withdrawn. The failure of the petitioner or his representative to appear and state his cause at such hearing shall be grounds for dismissal of such petition.
(b) Upon hearing, the Planning Commission may affirm, amend, modify or withdraw such notice and order, and the petitioner and the Zoning Inspector shall be notified in writing of such findings.
(c) The proceedings at such hearings, including the findings and decision of the Planning Commission and reasons therefor, shall be summarized and reduced to writing and entered as a matter of public record in the office of the Zoning Inspector. Such record shall also include a copy of every notice and order issued in connection with the matter. Any person aggrieved by the decision of the Planning Commission may seek relief therefrom in any court of competent jurisdiction as provided by the laws of the State.
