45% of them are new buildings and 55% are renovations, additions or alterations: a mix of ground-up builds, where the builder decides, and renovations, where the owner or designer often does. 10 of them (45%) were permitted in the last 90 days. Red Deer ranks 24 of 25 markets Builtie covers for low-voltage, behind Broken Arrow (35 projects).
A project counts when its permit was issued in the last four years, the build is still inside the stage when low-voltage is awarded, and the job is big enough to be worth quoting: at least $4k of low-voltage work. Trade sub-permits are grouped into their parent project, so this is a count of projects, not permits.
