Fuller Park permit value drops 80% despite new Metro by T-Mobile

Permit value in Fuller Park fell from $1.3 million to $266,000, a drop of almost 80%. The neighborhood issued five permits, down from ten. Three businesses opened: a Metro by T-Mobile, a retail spot called seafood junction, and peddler Don D Mandley. Crime climbed 44%, with 49 incidents reported versus 34 the month before. Violent crime rose from 13 to 17. Service requests dropped a third, though 38 of them involved tree trimming—a category the city's no longer accepting. One food establishment failed inspection.
