(A) Application. Any person aggrieved by decision of the Chief Building Inspector may apply to the Board of Adjustment for a variation of the application of any provision of the Building Code to the particular case. The application shall be in writing, shall specify the variation sought and shall be signed by the applicant. The Board, upon such application and after a public hearing pursuant to such notice as the Board shall specify, may vary the application of any provision of the Building Code to the particular case when, in its opinion, the enforcement thereof would do manifest injustice, and would be contrary to the spirit and purpose of the Building Code or public interest. A decision of the Board to vary the application of any provision of the Building Code shall specify in what manner the variation is made, the conditions upon which it is made and the reasons therefor.
(B) Fee. Any person applying for a variation of the application of any provision of the Building Code shall contemporaneously pay to the City Clerk, a fee equal to one-half the original building permit application filing fee; provided, the minimum fee shall be $10; provided, further, no such fee shall be payable if the application is made by the city pursuant to a motion of the City Council.
