Land-use decisions, from the source
10,334 rezonings, site plans, subdivisions, annexations and special-use permits recorded in the US last quarter — 1 June to 3 September 2026

Your next project is already on somebody’s agenda.

We track 8,276 local governments across the US and Canada and re-read 6,595 of them in the last seven days, pulling out every land-use action. You get the jurisdiction, the date, the body, and the board’s own words — with a link to the document it came from. Last quarter’s rows came from 2,691 different US jurisdictions across all 50 states.

Six real rows from last quarter’s file, each checked against its own source document. Every row carries the verbatim sentence the board wrote and a link to the agenda or minutes it came from, so if a row is wrong you can see that for yourself in about ten seconds. We would rather you caught one than trusted us.

Why it exists

Nobody can read eight thousand agendas.

01

Before the vote, not after the permit

8,262 of last quarter’s 10,334 rows were scheduled items — on an agenda, not yet decided. An agenda is published days before its meeting; a decision reaches us a median of 30 days after one, because that is how long a clerk takes to post minutes.

02

Denials are signal too

A rezoning denied in the town next door tells you as much as one approved. Permit data only ever shows you what got built.

03

Small jurisdictions, not just metros

Most coverage stops at big cities. Last quarter’s heaviest states were Utah (1,336 rows), Texas (782), Massachusetts (555), Florida (509) and Wisconsin (421) — a lot of that is counties, towns and villages, where nobody else is looking.

What this does not do

The limits, up front.

  • We do not give you the owner’s phone number. This is the decision record, not a contact database. Owner lookup is available in selected states as an add-on, and we will tell you plainly whether yours is one.
  • The address column is roughly 70% right, and we will not pretend otherwise. 42% of rows carry a street address at all; of 40 that we hand-checked against their own documents, 12 pointed somewhere wrong — usually the meeting venue, the applicant’s or engineer’s office, or a neighbouring item on the same long agenda. So every address ships with the verbatim sentence it was pulled from, and you should read that sentence before you drive anywhere. Jurisdiction, date, body, action and source link are the reliable columns; the address is a hint.
  • Coverage is not uniform and not complete. We track 8,276 local governments (7,804 of them in the US) and re-read 6,595 in a given week. 2,691 produced a land-use row last quarter. If your county is not covered we will tell you that before you pay, not after.
  • We only see what a board writes down. An item titled “Old Business, Item 7” is invisible to us, and a project that never needs a hearing — an inline tenant fit-out, a by-right build — never appears at all.
  • “Scheduled” is not “approved”. Every row is labelled with which it is. We will never let an agenda item read as a decision.
  • Coverage is a moving target. Governments change agenda vendors and break their own feeds. We publish which jurisdictions we are reading and when each was last successfully read.
