There is hereby created and established a Board of Appeal in the Plumbing
Division of the Bureau of Development Services consisting of three members
appointed by the Mayor. One member shall be a plumbing contractor whose
experience and training qualify him to decide matters concerning the safety of
installations and devices regulated by this Title; one member shall be a person
engaged in the design of plumbing installations whose experience and training
qualify him to decide matters concerning the safety of installations and devices
regulated by this Title and one member who shall be a member of the public at
large. The Chief Engineer of the Water Bureau and the City Health Officer
shall be advisory members of the Board. The advisory members shall serve
with the three regular members of the Board when valves, devices, or appliances
used for the supplying and flushing of plumbing fixtures and traps are submitted
to the Board of Examination for tests. At the constitution of the Board, one member shall be appointed for the term
of 1 year, one member for the term of 2 years, and one member for the term of 3
years. After the expiration of the term of office of the members first
appointed, appointments shall be made for a term of 3 years; provided, that the
members of the Board at the time of the passage of this Code shall continue in
office during the term for which they were originally appointed. No member
shall sit in a case in which he is directly or indirectly interested. All
vacancies occurring on the Board of Appeals, other than advisory members, for
whatever cause shall be filled by the Mayor, either permanently or temporarily,
as the case may demand. Any member of the Board of Appeals may be removed
by the Mayor for malfeasance in office, incapacity, or neglect of duty.
The members of the Board shall serve without pay.
