(A) Appeals by any person or persons aggrieved or by any public officer, department, board, bureau, corporation or others affected by any decision of the Administrator or Commission shall be taken to the Board. Such appeal shall be taken within 14 calendar days after such decision, as provided by the rules of the Board, by filing with the Administrator a notice of appeal, and specifying the grounds thereof. The Administrator shall then transmit to the Board all papers constituting the record upon which the action appealed from was taken.
(B) An appeal stays all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the Administrator certifies to the Board, after filing the notice of appeal with them, that by reason of facts stated in the certificate, stay would, in his opinion, cause imminent peril to life and property. In such case, proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by a restraining order, granted by a Court of Record, upon notice to the Administrator and on due cause shown. The final disposition of any appeal shall be in the form of a resolution by the Board whether reversing, modifying or confirming the decision of the Administrator.
(C) The Board shall fix a reasonable time for the hearing by publication in the official newspaper at least seven days prior to said hearing, as well as written notice to the Chairman of the Planning Commission and appellant. At the hearing, any party may appear in person or through an agent or attorney. The Board shall decide the application or appeal within a reasonable time.
(D) The concurring vote of the majority of voting members present shall be necessary to approve, modify or reverse any decision or action of the Administrator or Commission.
(E) Any party may appeal any decision of the Board by filing a notice of appeal with the City Council within seven calendar days of the Board's decision. The Council by a 4/5 vote may alter, revise, or rescind said decision. No permit shall be issued until the time for appeal has expired.
