Any person who is denied a permit, or is granted a permit with conditions, may appeal the denial or imposition of conditions, by filing a written notice of appeal with the city manager or designee within 15 days of the date of denial or the date of issuance of the permit with conditions imposed. In addition, any person who provided comments on an application pursuant to section 6.310(6), and who is dissatisfied with the action of the city manager or designee in granting a permit, whether with or without conditions, also may appeal by following the same procedures. The appeal shall be governed by section 2.021 of this code. The appeal must include the specific basis or bases upon which the appellant asserts that the decision was in error.
