Any person to whom any provision of this chapter has been applied, including, but not limited to, an owner/developer who has been denied a storm water permit, may appeal in writing to the AHJ not later than 30 days after the action or decision being appealed. Such appeal shall identify the matter being appealed, and the basis for the appeal. The Local Board of Appeals shall consider the appeal and make a decision whereby it affirms, rejects, or modifies the action being appealed. In the event that there is another local governmental entity(s) within the drainage district at issue, such entity(s) shall be notified of the request. In considering any such appeal, the Local Board of Appeals may consider the recommendations of the AHJ and the comments of other persons having knowledge or expertise regarding the matter. The Local Board of Appeals may overturn the determination of the AHJ upon determining that the AHJ has wrongfully interpreted or applied the standards in this chapter. When the Drain Commissioner is the AHJ, the decision of the Drain Commissioner is final.
