Eden Valley, Minn., Mun. Code Ch. 153 (2026) § 153.11
APPEALS PROCESS
Operative Text
When it is alleged by any person to whom a correction order is directed that such order is based upon erroneous interpretation of the applicable rules, standards, statutes, or ordinance or mistake in fact, such person may appeal the correction order to the Housing Board. Such appeal must be in writing, must specify the grounds for the appeal, must be accompanied by any filing fee established by the city, and must be filed within 20 business days after the date of the correction order. Upon receipt of the written appeal, the city shall set a date for a hearing and give the appellant at least five days prior written notice of the date, time, and place of the hearing. By mutual agreement between the appellant and the city, the five-day notice may be waived. The Housing Board shall hear and consider the matter within 30 days from the filing of an appeal. The filing of an appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from unless the Compliance Officer certifies that such a stay would cause imminent peril to life, health, or property. The Housing Board shall issue its decision to the appellant in writing within 30 days after the hearing. If the correction order is reversed, the applicable filing fee will be returned to the appellant. (Ord. passed 4-6-2016)
