Sec. 76-77. - Hearing on application. (a) The application for a new vehicle permit or renewal of a vehicle permit under this article shall be approved or disapproved within 50 days from the date of the director's determination that the application is complete, unless the applicant agrees in writing to an extension of that time period. If a vehicle permit application is disapproved, the director shall notify the applicant in person, or by registered or certified mail to the address provided by the applicant. (b) If within ten days after the director mails notice to the applicant that the application has been disapproved, the applicant files with the director a written request for a hearing before the director, then the director shall within ten days of receipt of a timely request, mail a notice of a hearing to the applicant, which shall include the date, time and place for the hearing before the director. The date for the hearing shall not be less than 30 days nor more than 40 days following the filing of the request for a hearing under this section, unless the aggrieved party requesting the hearing agrees to extend the time for the hearing. (c) The applicant shall have full right to be represented by counsel, to produce witnesses, and to cross examine all witnesses who may appear against him. A record shall be made of the proceedings at such hearing, which shall be transcribed at the expense of the party requesting the transcription. In the grant or denial of an application, the director is authorized to determine whether the applicant will conduct the business in accordance with the provisions of this code. This determination shall be based on information provided by the applicant; sworn testimony of witnesses, and official records of any municipal state or federal government or court. Such determination can result in the denial of the vehicle permit or renewal or the unrestricted or restricted grant thereof. If a vehicle permit application is disapproved, the director shall notify the applicant in person or by registered or certified mail to the address provided by the applicant and shall state the basis for the disapproval.
