15 qualified projects this week

Know about the dirt work
before the permit is pulled.

We read every Knox County planning filing and state stormwater permit each week, then send you the site-work projects that have a public decision coming up — with the acreage, the applicant, and who to call.

Median 92 days before those same projects file for a stormwater permit. Measured, not estimated.

How it works

Three steps you'd otherwise do yourself

  1. 01

    We read the filings

    Every monthly planning agenda, every case detail page, and the state stormwater permit register. Around 30–70 Knox cases a month.

  2. 02

    We pull out what matters

    Acreage, lot counts, the applicant, the utility district, the assigned planner, the hearing date, and the site plan — standardized and mapped.

  3. 03

    You get the short list

    Only projects tagged for your trade with a decision on the calendar. One email, Monday morning. No portal to log into.

A real lead

This is the whole product.

Not a mockup. Briggs Station is a genuine filing heard by the Knox County Planning Commission, and everything on the card came out of public records. Every link on it opens the county's or the state's own page — go check it.

  • 94 acres, 131 lots, with 49 acres of documented disturbance
  • A hearing date already on the public calendar
  • The applicant entity, with a phone and a named principal
  • The assigned planner's direct line
  • The stamped site plan you can estimate from

Trades marked confirmed are quoted word-for-word from the case file. Ones marked inferredlikely come from the zoning change, and we label them so you know the difference.

Coverage

Four trades, five contractors each

A lead list sold to everyone is worth nothing. We cap each trade at five contractors per county, then close the slot.

Counts are current open projects with a scheduled decision. We don't sell a commercial HVAC tier — Knox filings are overwhelmingly residential and it wouldn't be worth your money.

The guarantee

Six qualified projects in 30 days, or you don't pay.

If your first four digests don't contain at least six qualified leads, reply with the word refund and we return your first month in full. You keep every lead we sent.

A qualified lead means all six
  1. 1In your county
  2. 2Tagged for your trade
  3. 35 acres or more, or 5+ acres of documented disturbance
  4. 4Has a street address we can map
  5. 5Has someone reachable — applicant, engineer, or the case planner
  6. 6No building permit issued yet

Every lead is labelled, so you count them yourself. We don't decide after the fact whether something counted.

What we don't promise: that you'll win the work. That depends on your pricing, your capacity and your relationships. We promise early, accurate, actionable filings — and we'll refund you if we don't deliver them.

Questions

Straight answers

Isn't this public record? Couldn't I just find it myself?

Yes, all of it is public. It's spread across monthly planning agenda PDFs that run 30–70 items, per-case detail pages, and a state permit portal with no useful search. You're not paying for secret data. You're paying to not spend a Saturday on it every week.

Do you have the developer's phone number?

Sometimes. On the leads we send, we include a reachable phone or email for the applicant or their engineer where one is published — with a link to the source so you can verify it. Where nothing is published, you get the direct line of the county planner assigned to the case, and they'll tell you who the civil engineer is.

How far ahead is this, really?

About three months. We measured it: matching Knox planning cases against the stormwater permits those same projects later filed, the median gap was 92 days. Some are shorter, some run to eight months.

How do I know the information is accurate?

Every contact carries a link to where it came from. Every trade tag is either marked confirmed — quoted word-for-word from the case file — or likely, meaning we inferred it from the zoning change and said so. Check one and see.

What if a project is residential and I only do commercial?

Most Knox filings are residential subdivisions, so if you only take commercial work this is a poor fit and we'd rather tell you now. It's a strong fit for site work: grading, utilities, paving and flatwork on subdivision projects.

Why cap it at five contractors per trade?

Because a lead list sold to everyone is worth nothing. Five per trade per county, then that slot is closed.

Fifteen projects are up for decision right now.

Most of them get heard within three weeks. After that the developer has already talked to somebody.
