(A) Any determination of the code official under this chapter may be appealed to the Board of Trustees by filing a request for review in writing within 35 days after the code official issues his or her determination. The Board of Trustees may designate a committee of the Board to hear the request for review and make a written recommendation to the Board of Trustees. The decision of the Board of Trustees will be final.
(B) In reviewing the determination of the code official, the Board of Trustees will consider only whether the determination of the code official in applying the regulations of this chapter imposes an unreasonable and undue economic hardship that materially limits the property owner from making reasonable use of such owner’s property or otherwise imposes requirements which are unreasonably burdensome to the property owner given the benefits thereof to the village. After receiving written submittals from the property owner and the code official (and after a hearing if the Board of Trustees determines that such a hearing will be instructive), a decision on such appeal must be issued in writing no more than 60 days after the delivery of the final submittal by the owner or code official or after the close of the hearing, whichever is later.
(C) In considering an appeal under this section, the Board of Trustees may reverse, affirm, or modify the determination of the code official, or remand the determination back to the code official for further consideration, with or without instructions.
(D) The Board of Trustees may issue further procedural rules governing appeals under this section.
