PERMIT WATCH
Follow the work
described in the record.

A match does not identify a buyer or prove purchase intent, construction activity, payment of fees or a newly issued permit.

What work should we look for?
Your draft remains here. Download it before replacing it with the latest saved version.
03 / OBSERVED CHANGES
Review the source evidence
Save your criteria to load a batch.
Up to 50 pending events per batch. A new watch version checks retained history again. Refresh runs every 60 seconds while this tab is visible, unless you have an unsaved draft or a batch ready for a receipt. This is not a complete city scan or a background notification service.
Records excluded from this batch
These known non-matches are part of the download and the batch receipt. Exclusion does not remove source evidence.
Keep the evidence, then move to the next batch
Download includes all input events, your criteria, matching reasons and exclusions. A receipt only removes these events from this watch version’s pending queue; it does not complete a business review.
