The owner of any building or structure ordered by the Enforcement Officer to be demolished and removed or who is directed by the Enforcement Officer to take any other steps to abate a nuisance or remove hazards found by the Enforcement Officer to exist shall have the right of appeal from such orders to the Town Council provided such owner gives notice of appeal to the Enforcement Officer at the time of the hearing at which the order is made or, within ten days after such order is made, files with the Enforcement Officer a written notice of such appeal. A notice of appeal shall state the grounds therefor. Unless an appeal is taken within the time and in the manner herein prescribed, the action of the Enforcement Officer shall be deemed final, subject only to such action as the Council may take, as herein elsewhere provided. Where an appeal has been properly taken and notice thereof given in accordance with the provisions of this section, it shall be the duty of the Enforcement Officer to report same to the Town Clerk who shall cause the matter to be placed on the agenda for action by the Council at its next ensuing regular meeting. The Council shall have the right to continue the hearing of the appeal from time to time, in its discretion.
