(a) An appeal to the City's Board of Building Code Appeals shall be taken within thirty (30) days from the date of the decision or order from which the appeal is taken by paying a seventy-five dollar ($75.00) fee and filing with the Commissioner of Building a notice of appeal specifying the grounds therefor. The Commissioner of Building shall forthwith transmit to the Board of Building Code Appeals papers upon which the action appealed was taken. Failure to file a written appeal within the time prescribed herein shall constitute a waiver of the right of appeal.
(b) If the Board of Building Code Appeals determines after hearing that the appellant had reasonable grounds for the appeal or if the Board grants the relief requested by appellant in whole or in part, the Board may authorize the reimbursement to the appellant of all or part of such filing fee. (Ord. 06-53. Passed 5-22-06; Ord. 13-114. Enacted 12-16-13.)
