The department may issue annual permits pursuant to section 321E.8A valid only for operation on noninterstate highways in counties stipulated in the permit.
  2.  At the request of a local authority, the department shall issue annual, multi-trip, and single-trip permits that are under the jurisdiction of the local authority.
