An appeal to the Zoning Board of Appeals stays all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the officer or body from whom the appeal is taken certifies to the Board of Appeals, after the notice of appeal had been filed, that by reason of facts stated in the certificate, a stay would, in the opinion of the officer or body, cause imminent peril to life or property, in which case proceedings shall not be stayed, otherwise than by a restraining order which may be granted by the Board of Appeals or by the circuit court, on application, on notice to the officer or board from whom the appeal is taken and on due cause shown.
