Upon the filing of the application for issuance of an initial license, the department shall, within five working days of the filing, make a determination regarding the completeness of the application. If the application is complete, the department shall immediately request a fire clearance and notify the applicant to arrange a time for the department to conduct a prelicensure inspection. If the department determines that an application is for licensure of a currently licensed facility for which there is no material change to the management or operations of the facility, the prelicensure inspection is optional at the discretion of the department.
If the application is incomplete, the department shall notify the applicant and request the necessary information. Within 60 days of making a determination that the file is complete, the department shall make a determination whether the application is in compliance with this chapter and the rules and regulations of the department and shall either immediately issue the license or notify the applicant of the deficiencies. The notice shall specify whether the deficiencies constitute denial of the application or whether further corrections for compliance will likely result in approval of the application.
