Public notice. West Sacramento’s public permit map service lists 151 building permits with a status date from September 28, 2026, through October 4, 2026. This file has no separate issued-date field, so the count uses status date. The newest status date in that set is October 4,
Public notice. West Sacramento’s public permit map service lists 151 building permits with a status date from September 28, 2026, through October 4, 2026. This file has no separate issued-date field, so the count uses status date. The newest status date in that set is October 4, 2026.
Of those 151 records, OTC leads with 93 rows, followed by Residential (30), Fire (13), Commercial (11), Multi Family (2), and Sign (2). Those groups are 151 of the 151 — the full set.
OTC (over-the-counter) permits are the majority — about 62 percent of the week. That usually means smaller, faster clearances: the kind of work cities process without a long plan-check queue. Residential (30) and Commercial (11) are the next substantive buckets; Fire (13) is a meaningful life-safety slice that readers should not skim past.
Two multi-family rows and two sign permits are small but specific. Multi-family tags point to apartment or stacked-housing work; sign permits track storefront and site identification. Neither is invented geography — both are type labels on the city’s public layer.
West Sacramento sits across the Sacramento River in Yolo County and anchors the /ca/yolo hub on Notice Nearby. A 151-row status-date week with a heavy OTC mix says the city’s permit counter was clearing a lot of smaller jobs while still moving residential, fire, and commercial files.
Because this pull uses status date rather than a separate issued-date field, treat the window as status activity on the layer, not a claim about a different date column the file does not publish. Check the city’s own copy before you rely on any one row.
Status-date counting is a data-honesty choice: the city’s public layer exposes StatusDate, not a separate IssuedDate field in this service. Readers comparing West Sacramento to Roseville should remember Roseville’s portal used issued_date while West Sacramento’s count tracks status movement.
OTC volume this high usually means homeowners and small contractors are clearing quick work — water heaters, minor electrical, small building counter jobs — while Fire and Commercial rows mark the slower, more consequential files.
