Aweek’sworthofpermitapplicationsreviewed,sorted,andcode-checkedbeforelunch.

A planning department receives 80–120 applications a week. The agent reads each one, cross-references the current building code, zoning ordinance, and project description, and sorts them: complete applications go to the approval queue with a summary; incomplete ones get a deficiency notice citing the exact code section and what’s missing. Reviewers start from a queue of actionable files, not a stack of paper.
