Examples

permit_metadata()$caveats
#> [1] "The measured wait is the homeowner's calendar wait, not a statutory compliance measure. California Government Code 66317 runs its 60-day clock from a completed application and tolls on applicant delay; these records carry only the submission date."
#> [2] "An application with an empty issued_date had no issued permit when the records were retrieved. That may be a stalled review or an abandoned project; the records do not distinguish the two, and none of them are marked denied."                       
#> [3] "Cross-city level comparison is not apples-to-apples; the trend within a city is sound."
