How to work this list

A pulled permit means the money is committed and the schedule is being built. For electricians that is weeks to months of warning before the call goes out.
Split the list. Housing permits you chase this week and win on being reachable; commercial ones you chase by finding the general contractor and getting on the bid list.
Track the ones you contact somewhere that will remind you, because the trade call on most of these lands one to four months after the permit is issued.
