Coverage
Seattle is active. Every other market is request-driven.
Permit News launches where public source depth, source-owner clarity, and customer demand can support useful News items. Seattle is the active market; additional markets start as coverage requests.
Coverage proof
Coverage proof starts with the source owner.
Seattle is active because City of Seattle source coverage is modeled. Other markets remain requests until source depth and demand justify expansion.

A market is a named Permit News service area made from launch-ready submarkets and the authorities and sources actually covered. It is not automatically a city limit, county, Census or OMB metro, or every nearby jurisdiction. A submarket is a stable operating area inside one market, assembled from an activated tract-primary and block-group-override shape version for a practical monitoring workflow. It is not a ZIP code, neighborhood, or permitting authority.
Building permits
City of Seattle building permit records anchor commercial and residential permit activity.
Land use permits
Land-use records help surface development context before construction permits tell the whole story.
Document depth is readiness-gated
Permit and status coverage is current. Plan-review and plan-comment depth is described as historical or partial until its freshness gate passes.
Requested markets stay separate from active coverage.
The broader coverage map is a demand-capture planning view, not a live permit-location map. Additional source owners and submarkets will be prioritized where public sources publish enough useful permit context and professional teams can act on the resulting News items.
