(a) Appeals to the Board of Zoning Appeals concerning interpretation or administration of the Zoning Code may be taken by any person aggrieved by any decision of the Code Enforcement Officer or his or her authorized representative. Such appeal shall be taken within 30 days after the decision by filing with the Code Enforcement Officer or his or her authorized representative and the Board of Zoning Appeals, a notice of appeal specifying the grounds upon which the appeal is being taken and which shall be accompanied by the required fee. The Code Enforcement Officer or his or her authorized representative shall transmit to the Board of Zoning Appeals all the papers constituting the record upon which the action appealed from was taken.
(b) Stay of proceedings. An appeal stays all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed unless the Code Enforcement Officer or his or her authorized representative, by reason of facts stated in the application, finds that a stay would, in his or her opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case, proceedings shall not be stayed other than by a restraining order granted by a court of competent jurisdiction.
