Building permit leads in Montebello
Montebello's counter isn't switched on yet. We're still mapping which permit system the city runs. The nightly sweep starts the day we have a road in, and the first scored leads reach subscribers the morning after.
Why Montebello permits will be worth watching
Montebello is corridor retail with an industrial edge, the kind of unglamorous counter where steady work hides.
A building permit is the earliest public record most projects ever produce, filed months before anything reaches a bid board or the trade press.
