(2) Administrative Proceeding. When a petition for review has been filed, the superior court may stay further proceedings in an administrative agency and the operation or enforcement of the order or decision sought to be reviewed when the party seeking review establishes that irreparable injury will result if the stay is not granted. (e) Relief Available. Upon consideration of a petition for review, the superior court may affirm, modify, vacate, set aside or reverse any order or decision of a district court or administrative agency, and may remand the action or proceeding and direct the entry of such appropriate judgment or order, or require such further proceedings to be had, as may be just under the circumstances.
