This register has no phone column at all. The feed gives you the business name; with the Google Maps enrichment on, the run looks each contractor up and fills the phone and website where the name matches (measured in Seattle on 22 September 2026: 16 of 33 contractors matched, a phone on 55 of 80 permits that had none; Chicago 7 of 40).

How to get the Chicago permit feed

One run delivers the permits issued in the last N days, one row per permit, classified by trade (roofing, solar, HVAC, electrical, plumbing, remodel, new construction, demolition, pool, fence), with a lead score and a lead window. Delta mode remembers what it already sent, so a daily schedule only pays for new permits.

The Chicago register publishes issued permits only, with no application date and no completion date, so the earlier stage (applications) and the later one (completed work) return nothing here.
