Pullman doubles permit count, but value drops 93%
Pullman issued 14 permits in March, twice the previous month's seven, but total value fell from $832k to $54k. Ten were express permits, typically small-scale jobs. Six new businesses opened: North Star Feeds, a manufacturer, and five limited licenses under Odyssey Transport & Warehouse LLC (probably the same operation filing multiple times). Service requests rose 26%, led by 130 tree trim requests—a category the city no longer accepts, though tickets kept arriving. Potholes drew 58 calls. Crime edged up to 75 incidents, with 21 violent offenses.
