The Board of Building Appeals was established to allow an appeal by any interested party aggrieved by the Building Commissioner's denial of a building or occupancy permit based on the requirements of the Building Codes. The Board also hears appeals concerning structural condemnations.

The Board is comprised of citizens appointed by the Mayor and is empowered to sustain the decision of the Building Commissioner, amend the decision of the Building Commissioner, or overrule the decision of the Building Commissioner by declaring such proposed construction equal to or better than that required for by the Building Code. Financial hardship is not acceptable as a reason for appeal.
