The Board of Appeals is used to hear and decide appeals
of orders, decisions or determinations made by the building official
relative to the application and interpretation of the model codes.
Typically, the Board of Appeals will hear appeals regarding disabled
access issues, retrofit mandates and City requirements made by the
building official that an applicant feels is unnecessarily costly to a
project.
The Appeals Board has no authority relative to
interpretation of the administrative provisions of the codes nor does
the board have the power to waive requirements of the codes.
The City of Rohnert Park Building Department is
currently using the City Council as the Board of Permit Appeals. Permit
holders or permit applicants who wish to appeal a decision of the
building official are asked to contact the Building Department for
information regarding the Appeals process.
