New electrical permits in Chicago — week of August 3, 2026
Every matching building permit the City of Chicago issued from 2026-08-03 to 2026-08-09, read from the City’s own dataset ydr8-5enu and re-read hourly. Filter: City permit type “PERMIT – EXPRESS PERMIT PROGRAM” where the work description mentions electrical work. The City retired the separate ELECTRIC WIRING permit type; electrical permits now file under the Express Permit Program.
This week is still in progress — each day’s permits land here the morning the City makes them public, so the table below will keep growing.

Measured 2026-08-03 · City of Chicago dataset ydr8-5enu
The City issued no permits matching this filter in this week. That is the dataset’s answer, not a gap in ours — the query is printed above so you can run it yourself.
Fewer than 3 matching permits landed in this week, so this page asks search engines not to index it. What is above is still the City’s complete answer for this filter and this week — a quiet week is a finding, not a reason to pad the page.
