Give a city and street address, or a latitude and longitude. Returns building permits within a radius (default 400 meters, about a quarter mile) issued since a date (default about six months back), newest first, each with distance in meters and compass direction from the point. Covers the last 24 months of city open data. counts.total is exact even when the list is capped.
