(A) An appeal stays all proceedings in the furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the officer from whom the appeal is taken certifies to the Board of Appeals, after the notice of appeal has been filed with him or her, that by reason of facts stated in the certificate a stay would, in his or her opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property.
(B) In this event the proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by a restraining order which may be granted by the Board of Appeals or by a court of record on application and on notice to the officer from whom the appeal is taken, and on due cause shown.
