General Building Permits

What this source can establish

The general building-permit record the City publishes, by work type and year, with all records starting from January 1, 2009. Establishes the fields available for a demolition frame: issue date, job category, job description, work type, units added, address and legal description, with demolition carried as a work type and in the job description text; and that the dataset carries no parcel or title identifier.

Fetch the original and hash it: if the bytes still match the SHA-256 above, you have the same document we read. If the page has changed since 2026-09-01 or the link has died, email [email protected] and we will arrange verification against the archived copy. Rights terms stop us republishing this file; they do not stop us proving which file it was.
