To whom can a decision from the Code Enforcement Board be appealed?

The decision from the Code Enforcement Board can be appealed to the Circuit Court. This is because the Circuit Court generally serves as an appellate court for disputes arising from administrative boards, including those related to code enforcement issues.

When a property owner or an affected party disagrees with a ruling made by the Code Enforcement Board, the process usually allows them to seek recourse through the Circuit Court, which can review the decision based on the applicable laws and the evidence presented. This pathway ensures that there is an opportunity for oversight and correction of any potential errors made by the administrative body.

While other courts like the County Court may handle some local matters, the specific appeals from code enforcement decisions are typically directed to the Circuit Court, where the focus is often on more significant legal matters and where judicial review processes are established to handle these types of appeals effectively.
