Auburn Gresham permit count drops 35%, value holds steady
Auburn Gresham issued 31 permits in November, down from 48 the month before. Despite the drop in volume, total permit value barely budged—about $776,000 versus $795,000 in October. Most of the work came through the express permit program, which accounted for 25 of the 31 permits. Three renovation projects and a pair of sign permits rounded out the month. No new businesses opened, none closed, and service request data wasn't available.
