(A) In the event that any provision of this chapter requires interpretation in order to be clarified, the Code Administrator identified in § 153.122 shall be vested with the authority to make the interpretation.
(1) Any appeal of the interpretation shall be made in writing to the Planning Commission, which shall review the appeal request and forward a recommendation to the City Council, whose decision shall be final.
(2) Any such interpretation, whether by the Code Administrator or the City Council, shall be reduced to writing and thereafter equitably applied to all.
(B) Every provision of this chapter shall be construed liberally in favor of the city, and every regulation set forth herein shall be considered the minimum requirement for the promotion of the public health, safety and welfare.
(C) This chapter and the aforementioned statutes shall be construed together in such a manner as to give full effect to both the regulations and statutes except in a case of irreconcilable conflict. In case of irreconcilable conflict, the laws passed by the State General Assembly are controlling to the extent of the conflict.
