Two kinds of mismatch

Made-up addresses to show the report format. Real reports read each city's published registry.

Listed expired, expiry still ahead

EXPIRED

Made-up permit STR-SAMPLE-0005, 500 Fiction Way, Sampleton. The city's word is EXPIRED, but the expiry date is 16 Sep 2027.

In the audit file

Cities sometimes publish records like this. The audit reports the city's own status word, EXPIRED, and adds no expiry flag, because that flag covers only expiry dates already past.

Real run, counts only

15 Oct 2026, 10:43 UTC: we read 531 rows from Orlando's published registry (data.cityoforlando.net, ssrj-rbua). Of 3 test addresses, 2 matched exactly and 1 was not found; 1 was listed active after its expiry date. We publish the counts, not the addresses. Receipt
