We publish counts by ZIP code and by contractor, not a list of permits by street address. The full record for one property, with every permit, its status and its inspections, is kept by the office that issued the permits; our source here is City of Little Rock Planning and Development permits on single-family, duplex and manufactured homes (the City's periodic permit download, the edition that runs to April 30, 2026). Ask that permit office for a property's permit history, or search its public records by address.

Source: City of Little Rock Planning and Development permits on single-family, duplex and manufactured homes (the City's periodic permit download, the edition that runs to April 30, 2026). The window is May 2023 through April 2026. Each permit is placed by its property's ZIP code (the address on the permit, or the parcel's when the permit has none).
Counted: permits on homes for the 10 kinds of work we track (HVAC, electrical, plumbing, new home, remodel & repair, lawn irrigation, addition, deck, porch & carport, generator, solar) where the record names a contractor. Not counted: commercial work, trades we don't read, and permits with no contractor (owner-pulled work). So this is not the city's count of every permit in 72206.
A ZIP code does not follow city or county lines; these count only permits in the City of Little Rock. Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits.
