§ 78-90. Procedure for appeals.

(a)

The decision of the zoning board of appeals shall be final. A party aggrieved by the decision may appeal to the circuit court of the county in which the property is located. An appeal of the decision of the zoning board of appeals shall be filed within 30 days after the zoning board of appeals certifies its decision in writing or approves the minutes of its decision. Appeals of decisions of the zoning board of appeals shall be subject to the provisions of Section 606 of PA 110 of 2006, as amended.

(b)

If the ZBA denies a request for a variance, the decision of the ZBA shall not be subject to re-consideration for a period of one year, whereupon the applicant may submit a new application for the variance. However, the ZBA may waive the one-year period if conditions upon which their original decision was made change, or if information relating to their original decision are found to be incorrect or inaccurate.
