An owner of property, city licensed person or establishment or other person or establishment receiving a notice of a code violation, such as a compliance letter, invoice, or letter or notice of adverse action from the city may appeal the alleged violation, the amount of any civil penalty or fee, or the adverse action. Such appeal must be in writing, must specify the grounds for the appeal, must be accompanied by a filing fee as established in the city’s adopted fee schedule in cash or cashier’s check, and must be filed with the City Administrator or designee within ten calendar days after service of the notice of code violation. The filing of an appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the city determines that such a stay would cause imminent peril to life, health, or property.
