The Board of Adjustment shall hear and decide appeals where it is alleged there is an error in any order, requirement, decision, or determination made by the Zoning/Building Administrator in the enforcement of this chapter.
1. Appeals to the Board may be taken by any person aggrieved, or by any officer, department, board or bureau of the City affected by any decision of the Zoning/Building Administrator. Such appeal shall be taken within 60 days by filing with the Zoning/Building Administrator and with the Board a notice of appeal specifying the grounds thereof. The Zoning/Building Administrator shall forthwith transmit to the Board all papers constituting the record upon which the action appealed from is taken.
2. The Board shall fix a reasonable time for the hearing of the appeal, and give not less than seven days or more than 20 days’ public notice. At said hearing, any party may appear in person, by agent or by attorney.
3. An appeal stays all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed, unless the Zoning/Building Administrator from whom the appeal is taken certifies to the Board of Adjustment, after the Notice of Appeal is filed with the Zoning/Building Administrator, that by reason of facts stated in the certificate, a stay would, in the Zoning/Building Administrator’s opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case proceedings shall not be stayed other than by a restraining order which may be granted by the Board of Adjustment or by a court of record on application, on notice to the Zoning/Building Administrator from whom the appeal is taken and on due cause shown.
