9-11 Appeals to Superior Court

An aggrieved party may appeal a decision of the Board to the Superior Court for Providence County by filing a complaint setting forth the reasons of appeal within twenty (20) days after such decision has been filed and posted with the Town Clerk. The decision shall be posted in a location visible to the public in the Town Hall for a period of twenty (20) days following the recording of the decision. The Board shall file the original documents acted upon by it and constituting the record of the case appealed from, or certified copies thereof, together with such other facts as may be pertinent, with the Clerk of the Court within thirty (30) days after being served with a copy of the complaint. When the complaint is filed by someone other than the original applicant or appellant, such original applicant or appellant and the members of the Board shall be made parties to such proceedings. The appeal shall not stay proceedings upon the decision appealed from, but the court may, it its discretion, grant a stay on appropriate terms and make such other orders as it deems necessary for an equitable disposition of the appeal.
