An appeal to the board of adjustment shall stay all proceedings of the action appealed; unless the officer from whom the appeal is taken certifies to the board that, by reason of facts stated in the certificate of stay, the stay would, in his or her opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. In such cases, proceedings shall not be stayed other than by a restraining order granted by the superior court on notice to the planning director, with due cause shown.
