An appeal stays all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the officer from whom the appeal is taken certifies to the appeal authority after the notice of appeal shall have been filed with him that by reason of facts stated in the certificate, the stay would in his opinion cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case, proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by restraining order which may be granted by the appeal authority or by the district court on application and notice and on due cause shown. (Ord. 757, 3-16-2010)
