Lincoln Square permit value jumps eleven-fold to $4.5M
Permit value in Lincoln Square shot up 1,133% in May, from $366k to $4.5 million, while the number of permits more than doubled to 38. Most were express permits (29), but the dollar surge suggests at least one hefty project. Service requests climbed a third to 1,282, led by yard waste pickups and tree emergencies—storm debris, likely. Crime ticked down 8% to 175 incidents, with violent offenses falling 15%. Food inspection failures dropped from eight to five. No new business licenses recorded.
