No residential parking permit shall be issued to a vehicle whose owner or principal operator do not reside within the designated residential permit parking area. The traffic engineer may require documentation of residency in whatever form he deems sufficient.

(e)

A residential parking permit shall be issued only to vehicles with valid state license plates, unless the vehicle is not required to have them.

The county administrator or a designated representative shall hold a hearing at which the applicant may appear and present evidence. After reviewing the evidence, the county administrator or a designated representative will issue a written decision upholding or reversing the decision of the traffic engineer.
