Permits at this address since the first recorded event
No approval, award or execution is recorded, so permits are counted after the first dated event, Nov 19, 2020 (Zoning Board of Appeals recommends approval of the garage size variance with a condition).
Computed by code from the building permits in the Park Ridge property release (the county permit feed), as of Nov 1, 2026. A permit shows that work was authorized, not that it was completed, and no permit recorded does not establish that nothing was built. A parcel matched by address is nominated by the address written in the record; that does not prove the record concerns it.
