It is the intent of this Ordinance that all questions of interpretation and enforcement shall be first presented to the Zoning Inspector and that such questions shall be presented to the Planning and Zoning Commission only on appeal from the decision of the Zoning Inspector and that recourse from the decisions of the Planning and Zoning Commission shall be to the courts, as provided by law. It is further the intent of this Ordinance that the duties of the Village Council in connection with this Ordinance shall not include hearing and deciding questions of interpretation and enforcement that may arise. The procedure for deciding such questions shall be as stated in this section and this Ordinance. Under this Ordinance, the Village Council shall only have the duties of considering and adopting or rejecting proposed amendments or the repeal of this Ordinance, as provided by law, and of establishing a schedule of fees and charges as stated in Section 1191.13 of this Ordinance. Nothing in this Ordinance shall be interpreted to prevent any official of the Village of Edon from appealing a decision of the Commission to the courts as provided in Chapters 2505 and 2506 of the Ohio Revised Code. Any such appeal shall be made within 10 days of the Commissions written decision.
