The requesting party may appeal the decision of the hearing officer by filing with the sheriff a written appeal specifying the grounds for the appeal and stating why the decision should not be applied.

    That written appeal must be filed with the sheriff’ s office within ten business days of the mailing of the notice of the hearing officer’ s decision pursuant to subsection I of Section 6.08.170.

    The failure to file a timely appeal as provided in this section shall be deemed a waiver of the right to appeal and the hearing officer’ s decision shall be final. If timely appealed, the appeal hearing officer shall promptly schedule an appeal hearing to be held no later than thirty (30) days after the timely filing of the written appeal.

    The appeal hearing officer may hear additional evidence and may sustain, reverse, or modify the decision. The appeal hearing officer shall issue a written decision to the party within thirty (30) days of the conclusion of the hearing. This decision shall be final. (Ord. 2005-35 § 2 (part))
