Tacoma’s feed mixes classic building permits with right-of-way and utility connection rows. That is normal for Accela-style city systems — read the type field before you assume every row is a new house.
Pierce County readers can compare this city paper with the separate Pierce County Filed Nearby notice on the shared /wa/pierce hub.
What the count covers
Aggregates come from Tacoma’s Accela permit feature service. This page does not list street addresses.
Why it matters
Residential versus commercial subtypes show where private construction energy sat this week; ROW and utility rows show public-works adjacency. Quiet byline: Building permits · sourced with Filed Nearby.
Port city permit mix
Tacoma’s Accela feed blends building, right-of-way, utility connection, and site permits. A headline “102 permits” without type filters would overstate vertical construction.
Residential versus commercial subtypes inside the Building type are the cleanest private-construction read. ROW and utility rows still matter for neighbors dealing with street cuts and service taps.
Pierce County pairing
Tacoma and Pierce County share the /wa/pierce hub. County permits outside the city will not appear here.
Valuation sums help rank weeks against each other. They are not a forecast of assessed values for tax bills.
How to read this notice
Filter mentally by permit_type=Building if you only want vertical construction, then look at subtype and category.
