Clearing permit value drops 79% to $135k
Clearing's construction activity fell sharply in September. Thirteen permits were issued, down from 23 the month before, and their combined value dropped from $639k to $135k. Twelve of the thirteen were express permits—fast-track approvals for smaller jobs. One elevator permit rounded out the list. No new businesses opened, no 311 requests were logged, and the month was otherwise uneventful.
