Community/Subdivision Name Designations #82

Open Johnnygard opened 7 years ago

Johnnygard commented 7 years ago

looking at this data from a Homebuilding or Land Development perspective, is there value in adding a community/subdivision attribute as an optional value to allow for rolling up reporting around all permits for a given community?

@Johnnygard Sorry about the delayed response. This is an interesting idea for an enhancement.

Do you have a sense for how common the community/subdivision/neighborhood name is in permit data?

Also, would it be possible to accommodate this within the existing spec? Perhaps using an optional field like ProjectName?
