(1) Application for a permit for each advertising device must be made on a form provided by the department, signed by the applicant or the applicant's duly authorized officer or agent, and include:

(2) Upon the department's receipt of a complete application for a permit which satisfies each of the requirements in subsection (1) of this section and otherwise meets the department's conditions, the department has thirty days to issue, by first-class mail to the address provided by the applicant, either a permit or a preliminary decision denying the application for permit.

(3) The applicant may appeal any preliminary decision denying the application for a permit by requesting a hearing in writing within thirty days of the department mailing the notice of the denial of the application for a permit to the applicant. If the applicant timely appeals, the matter must proceed in accordance with the “State Administrative Procedure Act”, article 4 of title 24, though the department may, by rule, create procedures for expedited review of denials and issuance of final agency decisions if the applicant consents to the expedited review.
