Each row is scoped to that authority’s retrieved records. The rows are not summed into a metro count or the national measured total; missing jurisdictions are not treated as zero.

Milwaukee has no published metro project count because only one of 113 permitting authorities produced a usable permit corpus. City of Milwaukee is shown as a separate authority result and must not be presented as metro coverage. The reviewed source joins the city's Accela permit grid to its open-data extract by exact record identifier so project name and use can provide affirmative industrial evidence. The source publishes no valuation. Its square-foot total is mainly assessor-derived existing-building context, so new-supply building area remains unavailable rather than being presented as permit-stated supply.

Accounting: Project counts are reviewed project identities, not raw permit rows or necessarily the live pipeline. Building area and value are shown only when the source or reviewed description supports them.
