Why this building is in the record

The City assesses this parcel under roll code X034, for which it publishes no description, so the office-code definition alone would omit it. It is included because The City’s own building permits record office use on the parcel: 6 permits in the City’s Office classes between 2013 and 2018. The building may hold other uses as well. Every building included this way.

An inspection result is a record of one visit, not a verdict on the building. In the City's process a Not Acceptable result is an ordinary step: the inspector lists what must change and the work is re-inspected, which is why the most common outcome across the record is Acceptable Add Inspection. Most results relate to a single tenant improvement rather than the whole building. Inspector notes are The City of Calgary's own text at retrieval, with contact details removed; applicant and contractor names are never read.
