5 · best fit firstPermit-property rows provide address/parcel keys, floor area, stories, unit count, structure-use subtype, and approved occupancy with permit/status dates and source vintage. They are partial permit-vintage facts and do not disambiguate multiple structures without a structure key.

The permit schema publishes approved-use occupancy and structure-use subtype with address/parcel, issue/status dates, and source vintage. It supplies dated recorded occupancy type, not present operations, tenancy, a current certificate, or current compliance.
Parcel-keyed permit rows publish the property's raw zoning designation and the associated structure's approved occupancy with permit/status dates and source vintage. Zoning supports parcel classification; occupancy remains permit-associated and must not be generalized to every structure or current operations.
The public view supplies permit/application number, type/category, work description, issue date, raw status, and status date for covered addresses and parcels. It is specialized stale permitted-work evidence, not complete current permit history.
