Action to approve or deny an application of an individual for an I.D. card shall be taken as expeditiously as possible by the licensing authority, but that action shall be taken within ninety (90) days after receipt of the application unless the licensing authority requires additional information from the I.D. card applicant. In that event, or if additional facts are required to satisfy the requirements of this chapter, or if the applicant has not submitted all the required information, the ninety-day (90) period for action by the licensing authority shall commence when all the information is received by the licensing authority.
