   A.   Appeal to Village Council.

The appeal shall be subject to the following conditions:

      3.   The party bringing an appeal to the Village Council shall have the burden of establishing that the Fire Chief's decision or order was in error.
   B.   Decision on Appeal. The Council, in the exercise of its discretion, may uphold, reverse or modify the requirements of the Fire Chief.
