(A) Any appeal from a ruling of the Zoning Administrator or body concerning the enforcement of the provisions of this chapter shall be made to the ZBA within ten days after the fate of the Zoning Administrator's decision which is the basis of the appeal. Any appeal shall be in writing on standard forms. The Zoning Administrator shall transmit to the Board all documents, or direct copies thereof, constituting the record upon which the action appealed from was taken. Any appeal to the ZBA shall be accompanied with a payment of a fee established by resolution of the Village Council to cover costs of processing such appeal.
(B) Appeals to the Board may be taken by any person aggrieved, or by any officer, department, or board of the village. Any party may appear in person or by agent or by attorney at a hearing considering their request or appeal.
(C) An appeal stays all proceedings, and thereupon all changes in the status quo of the property concerned shall constitute a violation of this chapter; except the Zoning Administrator may certify to the ZBA after the notice of the appeal shall have been filed with him or her that for reason of facts stated in the certificate, a stay would, in their opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property, in which case proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by restraining order, which may be granted by the ZBA, or, on application to the Circuit Court when due cause can be shown.
