Hearings of the Board of Appeals shall be public, but any hearing on any appeal case shall be preceded by an application for the appeal, in writing, filed with the Building Officer not less than six days in advance of the hearing and by notice of the filing of such application as provided in this section. The appellant shall deposit with the Board the sum of ten dollars ($10.00) and shall be responsible for making a record of the hearing, if such record is required by him or her. He or she shall receive back from the Board, after the disposition of the appeal, any unexpended balance of his or her deposit with the Board. If the Board finds that it is requisite to the interest of the owners of properties adjoining the lot in question and other owners of property in the neighborhood who, in the opinion of the Board, are concerned with the appeal, the appellant shall be required to notify, in writing, such interested owners or persons concerning the time, place and purpose of the hearing and the location and ownership of the property in question.
