(2) Grant, in cases where the application of the requirement of this code in the allowance of the stated time for the performance of any action required hereunder would appear to cause undue hardship on an owner, reasonable extensions of time not to exceed six months from date of the notice. No subsequent appeal shall be considered where an appeal has been previously decided involving the same building or premises and the same citation, unless the appellant can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Board a change in circumstances sufficient to justify reopening the appeal.

Every decision shall be in writing, and a copy of all decisions shall be promptly filed in the office of the Commercial Maintenance Code Administrator, and it shall be open to public inspection.
