        222.65  INVESTIGATION.
         If an application is made for placement of a person in a state
      resource center or special unit, the administrator shall immediately
      investigate the legal settlement of the person and proceed as
      follows:
         1.  If the administrator concurs with a certified determination as
      to legal settlement of the person so that the person is deemed a
      state case, the administrator shall cause the person either to be
      transferred to a resource center or a special unit or to be
      transferred to the place of foreign settlement.
         2.  If the administrator disputes a certified determination of
      legal settlement, the administrator shall order the person
      transferred to a state resource center or a special unit until the
      dispute is resolved.
         3.  If the administrator disputes a certified determination of
      legal settlement, the administrator shall utilize the procedure
      provided in section 225C.8 to resolve the dispute.  A determination
      of the person's legal settlement status made pursuant to section
      225C.8 is conclusive.
