Section 21.163 - Permit Application Review(a) The department will consider permit applications in the order of the receipt of completed applications.(b) If a paper application is rejected because it is not complete, lacks documentation, or has incorrect information, the application loses its priority position. The department will notify the applicant of the reasons the application was rejected.(c) The department will hold an application that is for the same site as or a conflicting site with that of an application that the department previously received until the department makes a final decision on the previously received application. The department will notify the applicant that the applicant's application is being held because an application for the same or a conflicting site was previously received. For the purposes of this subsection, the date of a final decision on an application is: (1) the date of the final decision on an appeal under § 21.170 of this subchapter (relating to Appeal Process for Permit Denials); or(2) if an appeal is not filed within the period provided by § 21.170 of this subchapter, on the 46th day after the date the denial notice was received under § 21.164 of this subchapter (relating to Decision on Application).(d) The department will review the permit application for completeness, correctness, and compliance with all requirements of this subchapter. Measurements will be taken at the site to determine if the sign placement meets the spacing and location requirements.43 Tex. Admin. Code § 21.163
