Subpart 1.

Factors considered.

Before appointing a deputy registrar, the commissioner must approve a proposed location for a deputy registrar office. In addition to the information and conditions specified in part 7406.0300, the commissioner shall consider the factors described in this part when considering a proposed office location:

A.

the accessibility of the office location to the public;

B.

the cost to the state to audit, monitor, and train the deputy registrar and staff at the office; and

C.

whether the office location will best serve the public convenience.

Subp. 2.

Disapproval of proposed office location.

If a request for an office location is not approved, the commissioner shall notify the individual proposing the office location in writing and provide a statement of the reason for the disapproval. The statement must notify the individual that, within 30 days from the day the notice was mailed, the individual may appeal the disapproval to the Office of Administrative Hearings for a contested case hearing under Minnesota Statutes, chapter 14, if a factor in subpart 1 was cited for disapproval and disapproval was not due to a failure to meet the distance or transaction requirements for office location.
