Construction Board of Appeals
Purpose:
The construction board of appeals shall hear the appeal and render and file its decision with a statement of reasons therefor with the city manager not later than 30 days after submission of the notice of appeal. The board shall modify or reverse the decision of the building inspector and/or grant a variance of a substantive requirement of the code, as set forth below, with a concurring vote of at least three members of the board. All decisions of the board shall be by resolution, certified copies of which shall be furnished to the appellant and the building inspector from whom the appeal was taken. The building inspector shall take immediate action in accordance with the decision of the board. Failure by the board to hear an appeal and file a decision within the time limit set forth in this section is deemed a denial of the appeal for the purpose of authorizing the institution of further appeals to the appropriate court. A record of decisions made by the board shall be kept by the building inspector and be open to the public for inspection during business hours.
