It is the intent of this Zoning Ordinance that all questions of interpretation and enforcement shall be first presented to the Zoning Inspector, and that such questions shall be presented to the Board only on appeal from the decision of the Zoning Inspector, and that recourse from the decisions of the Board shall be to the courts as provided by law. It is further the intent of this Ordinance that the duties of Council in connection with this Ordinance shall not include hearing and deciding questions of interpretation and enforcement that may arise. The procedure for deciding such questions shall be as stated in this chapter and this Ordinance. Under this Ordinance, Council shall have only the duties of considering and adopting or rejecting proposed amendments, considering special use permits, or the repeal of this Ordinance as provided by law, and of establishing a schedule of fees and charges. Nothing in this Ordinance shall be interpreted to prevent any official of the City from appealing a decision of the Board to the courts as provided in Ohio R.C. Chapters 2505 and 2506. Any such appeal shall be made within ten days of the Board's written decision.
