Appeals to the Board of Zoning Appeals may be taken by any person or by any officer, board or department of the Village, deeming himself or itself to be adversely affected by the decision of the Zoning Administrator or any decision in which the Board has original jurisdiction. Such appeal shall be taken within ten days after the decision. The appellant shall post security for the cost of all action required for the hearing of the appeal. An appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the Zoning Administrator whose decision is appealed, shall certify to the Zoning Board of Appeals after the notice of the appeal has been filed, that by reason of facts stated a stay would, in his opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property. Proceedings shall not be stayed by other than restraining order granted by the Board of Zoning Appeals or by a court having lawful jurisdiction. The Board of Zoning Appeals may reverse or affirm, wholly or in part or modify the order, requirement, decision or determination as in its opinion ought to be done, and to that end shall have all the powers of the Zoning Administrator from whom the appeal is taken.
