Any person aggrieved by an action of the planning commission may take an appeal to the board of supervisors by filing a notice of appeal with the clerk of the board of supervisors and with the planning commission within ten days of the action of the planning commission. An appeal of an action of the planning commission must express all bases for appeal with sufficient information and documents supporting all grounds of appeal reasonably available thereto. No additional grounds, information, or documents reasonably known or available at the time an appeal is filed will be accepted or considered by the board of supervisors after the expiration of ten days from the challenged action. The appeals process of this section is the exclusive, full and complete remedy available to a person aggrieved by an action of the planning commission. Failure to follow this appellate procedure will foreclose any aggrieved person the opportunity to file a legal challenge to the planning commission action complained of. Upon receipt of the planning commission records, the board of supervisors shall notify the planning commission, at least five days previous, of the time the board will consider the appeal.

(Ord. 84-16 § 4, 1984: Ord. 67-10 § 5.0600, 1967)

The notice of appeal required by Section 20.58.10 shall be accompanied by payment of the fee required by resolution of the board of supervisors, except that a Del Norte County department head, when acting in his or her official capacity as a county department head, shall not be required to pay a filing fee to appeal an action of the planning commission. If a filing fee is required pursuant to this chapter, the notice of appeal shall not be deemed filed unless accompanied by the fee required by resolution of the board of supervisors.

(Ord. 99-004 § 2, 1999: Ord. 96-04 § 2, 1996)

The board of supervisors shall consider the appeal and the record upon which the action appealed from was taken, and may, at its own discretion, cause the matter to be set for a public hearing.

(Ord. 67-10 § 5.0601, 1967)

If the board of supervisors causes the matter to be set for a public hearing, notice of the hearing shall be given by publication in a newspaper of general circulation printed and published in the county at least ten days prior to the hearing. The hearing may be continued from time to time.

(Ord. 67-10 § 5.0602, 1967)

Within in sixty days of the filing of the notice of appeal, the board of supervisors shall render its decision on the matter. Failure of the board of supervisors to render its decision on the matter within sixty days of the filing of the notice of appeal shall be a denial of the appeal and an affirmation of the action of the planning commission. The decision of the board of supervisors upon any appeal is final and conclusive to all things involved in the matter.

(Ord. 84-16 § 5, 1984: Ord. 67-10 § 5.0603, 1967)
