in effectSEC. 43A-25. APPEAL.
(a) If the director denies the issuance of a permit, or suspends a permit, he shall send to the applicant, or permit holder, by certified mail, return receipt requested, written notice of his action and the right to an appeal. The applicant, or permit holder, may appeal the decision of the director to the city manager by filing with the city manager a written request for a hearing within 10 days after receipt of the notice from the director. If a request for an appeal hearing is not made within the 10 day limit, the action of the director is final.
(b) The city manager, or designee, shall serve as hearing officer at an appeal hearing and consider evidence offered by any interested person. The formal rules of evidence do not apply at an appeal hearing; the hearing officer shall make his decision on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence presented at the hearing. The hearing officer must render a decision within 30 days after the request for an appeal hearing is filed. The hearing officer shall affirm, reverse, or modify the action of the director and his decision is final unless the applicant, or permit holder, files a written request with the city council for a hearing within 10 days after receipt of notice of the action of the hearing officer.
(c) If a request for an appeal hearing with the city council is filed within the 10 day limit, the city council shall hear and consider evidence offered by any interested person. The formal rules of evidence do not apply at an appeal hearing before the city council. The city council shall decide the appeal on the basis of a preponderance of the evidence presented at the hearing. The city council shall affirm, reverse, or modify the action of the hearing officer by a majority vote; failure to reach a majority decision on a motion shall leave the hearing officer’s decision unchanged. The result of an appeal hearing before the city council is final. (Ord. 15256)
