West Pullman permit value doubles on express work
West Pullman pulled 29 permits in August, down from 35 the month before, but their combined value more than doubled to $3.4 million. Most of that activity came through the express permit program—24 of the 29 permits went that route. The neighborhood also logged two renovation jobs, a demolition, a new construction permit, and one elevator equipment permit. No new business licenses or closures showed up in the data.
