6-12-6-1: APPEALS, GENERAL: An appeal may be taken to the Board
from any order, requirement, decision, or determination.
I made by an enforcing officer by any person aggrieved or by any
officer, department, board or bureau of the City. Such appeal
shall be taken by filing with the secretary of the Board a notice
of appeal, specifying the grounds therefor. All of the papers
constituting:the record upon which the action appealed from was
taken shall forthwith be transmitted to the Board. The filing of
an appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance of the action
appealed from, unless the Director bf•Building & Zoning certifies
...to the Bo.ard,'after the Notice of Appeal has been filed, that by
reason of facts stated in the certificate -of stay would, .in his
opinion, cause imminent peril to life or property, in which case
the proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by a restraining_
order which may be granted by the Board or by a court of record on
application, on notice to the Director of -Building and Zoning, and
on due cause shown. For purposes of thi's paragraph, "any person
aggrieved" shall mean any individual or legal entity, including any
tenant who has either resided at or occupied the property for at
least one year or has a lease with -a term of one year or longer,
(1) with an interest in the property which is the subject of the
appeal, or (2) with an interest in property for which protection
is afforded by the Zoning Ordinance, which interest or protection
would be directly and substantially diminished if the enforcing
officer's order, requirement, decision or determination prevailed.
The Board may reverse or affirm, wholly or partly, or may modify the
order, requirement, decision or determination as in its opinion
ought to be made in the premises, and to that end has all the powers
of the officer from whom the appeal is taken.
