South Shore permit value jumps to $4 million
South Shore logged $4 million in permitted construction work in May, up nearly tenfold from April's $367k. The 57 permits issued (triple the prior month) leaned heavily on express permits—37 of them—with another 17 covering renovations or alterations. No new businesses opened, no 311 requests were filed, and the other usual metrics sat at zero. The spike in permit dollars suggests one or two big projects hit the pipeline, though the details don't specify what or where.
