XV. Review
Any applicant aggrieved by a decision of the Board of Appeals denying either the application for a Special Permit or a variance on the grounds that such denial constitutes a permanent or temporary taking by eminent domain without just compensation and violates the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States as applied through the Fourteenth Amendment, shall be required to resubmit to the Board an application for a Special Permit or variance specifying in detail the specific use for which the Special Permit or Variance is sought.  The Board shall take evidence at a hearing or hearings necessary to determine whether the denial does constitute such a taking, applying the most recent legal standards, and shall render a written decision stating its reasons for its decisions.  Said written decision shall be rendered within one hundred and twenty (120) days from the date that all hearings are closed.
