Baton Rouge Building Permits — February 2026
Every building permit issued by the East Baton Rouge City-Parish in February 2026: counts, reported value, permits by trade, and the month's biggest projects.
Source: Baton Rouge open data (data.brla.gov) — building permits issued by the City-Parish Department of Permits and Inspections. Source last updated: October 18, 2026 · Our last pull: October 18, 2026 · Figures are as reported by the East Baton Rouge City-Parish.
Coverage: this report covers construction and occupancy permits issued by the East Baton Rouge City-Parish (Department of Permits and Inspections) — the consolidated city-parish government whose dataset covers all of East Baton Rouge Parish. Two facts about the parish's data shape the figures. The feed lists one row for every address a permit covers, so we count each permit once — counts on this page are permits, never raw feed rows. And project values are the applicants' stated figures, printed as reported: a multi-building project can state its project value on each of its building permits, and occupancy permits — which authorize a use rather than construction — usually state no project value at all.
