What a electrical lead looks like
- Street address of the job site
- Scope as the City recorded it — panel upgrades, subpanels, service upgrades and EV chargers and the rest of it
- Valuation where the City captured one
- Permit number, so you can quote it to SD Development Services before you drive out
- Map and street view links

Every new permit filed in the city. These cities do not publish who pulled the permit, so nothing here is ever described as owner-pulled — you get the fresh filing and the address, and you find out who is on it yourself. These are all new permits, not owner-pulled — those cities do not publish who pulled the permit, so we do not pretend otherwise. See coverage.
