Why this matters to a Calgary trade contractor

The biggest project on this week's list (1070 EVANSTON DR NW at $25.6M) is the kind of permit that, in our experience, generates 8–15 sub-trade pitches in the next 30 days. If your trade has anything to do with the work described, that's the call you make this week. Permit data is freshest in the first 14 days after filing.

Retrospective overview — data pulled from City of Calgary Open Data (dataset c2es-76ed). Shovel Radar subscribers receive trade-routed Excel feeds covering the same source data plus cross-product enrichment (federal vendor flags, tax-appeal cross-references, AGLC licence overlays, recent-opening signals).
