§ 21.5. Stay of proceedings.

An appeal stays all legal proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the zoning administrator certifies to the board of appeals after the notice of appeal shall have been filed with him, that by reason of facts stated in the certificate, a stay would in his opinion cause imminent peril to life and property. In such case, proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by a stay granted by the board of appeals or by a restraining order issued by a court of record on application, on notice to the zoning administrator, and for due cause shown.
