Chatham permit value spikes to $4.3M on 48 applications

Chatham logged 48 building permits in May, up from seven the month before, with a total declared value of $4.3 million — an eleven-fold jump from April's $357k. Thirty-six of those permits came through the city's express program, with another ten for renovation or alteration work. No new business licenses appeared in the data, and the other tracked categories stayed flat.
