Stay of proceedings

An appeal shall stay all proceedings in furtherance of the action appealed from, unless the administrative official or the agency or board from whom the appeal is taken certifies to the Zoning Board of Review, after an appeal shall have been duly filed, that by reason of facts stated in the certificate, a stay would in the opinion of the official, agency or board cause immanent peril to life or property. In that case, proceedings shall not be stayed other than by a restraining order, which may be granted by a court of competent jurisdiction on application therefor and upon notice to the administrative official or the agency or board from whom the appeal is taken on due cause shown.
