(A) A hearing before the Unsafe Hearing Board must be held relative to each order of the Building Inspector except for an order issued under § 156.55(A)(2) and (3). A hearing shall be conducted before the Board for all other orders of the Building Inspector under this section.
(B) The hearing shall be held on a business day no earlier than ten days after notice of the order is given. The Unsafe Hearing Board shall grant a continuance of the scheduled hearing if requested in writing by a person holding a substantial property interest in the affected real estate, if such request is received not later than five days after the notice is given. The continuance shall be for a period of not more than 14 days past the original date of the hearing.
(C) If at a hearing a person to whom an order has been issued requests an additional period to accomplish action required by the order and shows good cause for this request to be granted, the Unsafe Hearing Board may grant the request.
(D) At the conclusion of any hearing before the Unsafe Hearing Board, the hearing authority may make findings and take action to affirm the Building Inspector's order, rescind the Building Inspector's order or modify the Building Inspector's order; however, unless the person to whom the order was issued or counsel for the person to whom the order was issued is present at the hearing, the Unsafe Hearing Board may not modify the order so that it is more stringent than the Building Inspector's original order.
