Such date shall be not less than 10 days nor more than 30 days from the date the appeal was filed with the director, unless the parties agree to an extension of time. Written notice of the time and place of the hearing shall be given at least 10 days prior to the date of the hearing to each appellant by the hearing examiner’s office either by causing a copy of such notice to be delivered to the appellant personally or by mailing a copy thereof, postage prepaid, addressed to the appellant at his or her address shown on the appeal.
