Section 561. Permits

The board of health in its discretion may grant,
  suspend or revoke permits for businesses or other matters in respect  to
  any  subject  dealt  with  in  the  health  code  and  regulated  by the
  department and may prescribe reasonable fees for the  issuance  of  said
  permits.  Whenever the board of health in the health code authorizes the
  issuance,  suspension or revocation of a permit by the commissioner, his
  action shall be subject to review by the board of health upon an  appeal
  by  the party aggrieved under such rules as the board may provide.  Such
  rules may provide in what cases an appeal may stay  the  action  of  the
  commissioner  until  final  determination  by  the  board of health, but
  notwithstanding any such rule the board of health shall  have  power  to
  grant or refuse a stay in any particular case.
