Hyde Park permit count jumps 46%, led by express filings
Hyde Park pulled 38 permits in June, up from 26 the month prior. More than half—21—came through the city's express program, which fast-tracks smaller projects. Another 10 covered renovations or alterations. Total permitted value rose modestly to $7.1 million from $6.6 million. No new business licenses or closures showed up in the data. It's a quiet June otherwise, but the uptick in express permits suggests a cluster of minor rehab work across the neighborhood.
