11-4-20. Stay of proceedings by appeal to board of adjustment--Certificate of imminent peril to life or property--Restraining order staying proceedings. An appeal to the board of adjustment stays all proceedings in the action appealed from, unless the officer from whom the appeal is taken shall file a certificate that by reason of facts stated in the certificate a stay would in his opinion cause imminent peril to life or property. In such case proceedings shall not be stayed otherwise than by a restraining order which may be granted by the board of adjustment or by a court of record, on application, on notice to the officer from whom the appeal is taken and on due cause shown.
