2025-05
Gage Park permit value jumps to $7.6 million
Nineteen permits pulled in May totaled $7.6 million, up from $175k the month before—a 4,200% spike. Most of that appears tied to a handful of renovation permits; fourteen came through the express program. No new businesses opened or closed. Service requests dropped 11% to 1,131, with graffiti removal topping the list at 259 calls. Crime ticked up slightly to 173 incidents, though violent offenses dipped from 51 to 49. One food establishment failed inspection, down from three in April.
2026-05
Gage Park adds laundromat, shared kitchen user
Two new businesses opened in May: Lavenderia Blanca, a laundromat, and Dalia Dominguez Roman, a shared kitchen user. That matched the prior month's count. Building permits dropped from six (worth $3.5 million) to zero. Service requests fell from 482 to zero. Crime incidents went from nine to zero. Food inspection failures dropped from one to none. The across-the-board zeroes suggest either a reporting hiccup or an exceptionally uneventful stretch.
