Sources that carry it
10 sourcesPublic Accela Citizen Access search records for asbestos and demolition permits issued in Buncombe County, North Carolina. The portal history begins in 2021 and provides permit identifiers, dates, status, address, project text, and record-detail links; coverage is county-level, not statewide.
Official City of Los Angeles open-data product exposing LADBS Certificate of Occupancy records through dataset 3f9m-afei, an anonymous SODA API, and downloadable full files. Rows carry CofO number, issue date, latest certificate status and status-effective date; assessor book/page/parcel, legal-description and street-address keys; the related PCIS permit; permit and building facts; and, where populated, an `occupancy` value explicitly defined as the approved use for the structure. Public metadata identifies LADBS, official provenance, CC0 1.0 dedication, a weekly committed refresh, and data updated 2026-08-17; the checked live data contained 128,551 rows with CofO issue dates from 2005-01-26 through 2026-08-14. This is a certificate-record dataset, not proof of present operations: 82.89% of checked rows have null occupancy, no separate certificate-type or successor identifier is emitted, and current interpretation must be pinned to `cofo_issue_date`, `status_date`, `latest_status`, and the dataset-level source vintage.
Permits issued by the Department of Environment (DOE) from January 1993 to December 31, 2011 and by the Department of Public Health (CDPH) since January 1, 2012. This dataset also includes tank permits issued by CDPH on behalf of the Office of the Illinois State Fire Marshall (OSFM). On January 1, 2012, the DOE was disbanded and all its inspection, permitting, and enforcement authorities were transferred to the CDPH. The public Chicago Data Portal provides API access and downloadable exports, with daily updates.

Official daily public dataset and SODA API covering the lifecycle of New York City BIS permits, with a building identifier, permit status/type, and publication run date.
Iowa landfill and land-disposal inventory filtered from Iowa DNR's Solid Waste Facilities layer to Municipal Landfills and Other Landfills. It includes active and inactive or closed sites with facility identity, program and permit status, address, county, coordinates, and permit dates.
Official City of Los Angeles open-data product exposing soft-story-related permit and permit-application records through a dedicated Socrata catalog asset (nc44-6znn), API, and downloadable files. It contains parcel/address keys, permit identifiers, issue and status dates, permit status/type/category, work description, building attributes, and related permit-party fields. The product is limited to City of Los Angeles permit records selected into this soft-story view; it is not the mandatory programme's full building inventory. Metadata commits to weekly refresh, but the data was last updated 2023-05-22 and the latest row dates are 2023-05-19, so consumers must pin results to that source vintage. Permit issuance, `CofC Issued`, `Permit Finaled`, or absence of a record must not be interpreted as current structural safety, retrofit design adequacy, or complete ordinance compliance without an official status definition and newer authority evidence.
Refuse-disposal permit records from MDE’s Solid Waste Program permits dataset.
Commercial REST API for searching permits and address-level property permit histories across covered U.S. jurisdictions, including normalized permit status/type and canonical-tag recency rollups.
