The applicant must file a notice of appeal with the Board of Mayor and Aldermen within 30 days following the determination of the applicability of the impact fee ordinance, the impact fee or refund due. If the notice of appeal is accompanied by a bond or other sufficient surety satisfactory to the municipal counsel in an amount equal to the impact fee due, as calculated by the City Engineer, or his or her designee, the chief Building Official shall issue the building permit. The filing of an appeal shall not stay the collection of the impact fee due unless a bond or other sufficient surety has been filed.
