It is the intent of the Zoning Ordinance that all questions of interpretation and enforcement shall be first presented to the Zoning Inspector, and that such questions shall be presented to the Board only on appeal from the decision of the Zoning Inspector, and that recourse from the decisions of the Board shall be to the courts as provided by law. It is further the intent of the Zoning Ordinance that the duties of Council in connection with the Zoning Ordinance shall not include hearing and deciding questions of interpretation and enforcement that may arise. The procedure for deciding such questions shall be as stated in this section and the Zoning Ordinance. Under the Zoning Ordinance Council shall have only the duties of considering and adopting or rejecting proposed amendments or the repeal of the Zoning Ordinance as provided by law, and of establishing a schedule of fees and charges as stated in Section 1161.02. Nothing in the Zoning Ordinance shall be interpreted to prevent any official of the Village from appealing a decision of the Board to the courts as provided in Ohio R.C. Chapters 2505 and 2506. Any such appeal shall be made within ten days of the Board’s written decision.
