← Howell Opportunity Radar

Missouri coverage audit

Radar is being built from the state line north, county by county and municipality by municipality. The purpose of this registry is simple: a place must be marked checked, routed to another authority, or explicitly unavailable — never silently skipped.

115 / 115county-level jurisdictions fully routed
115county-level jurisdictions in the master checklist
947Census incorporated-place records wired into the town/city audit
4 layersmunicipal • county • statewide bids • planning/regulatory
Coverage does not mean every town has an online permit portal. If a municipality does not publish usable records online, Radar records that fact and routes the search through county, statewide bid, planning/public-meeting, and other lawful public sources. Census-designated places are routed through their governing jurisdictions.

South-to-north sweep — all 115 county-level jurisdictions

Ordered by Census county centroid latitude. All 115 county-level jurisdictions are now routed. Direct municipal/county source paths are distinguished from verified fallback coverage; no jurisdiction is silently omitted.

Municipality-by-municipality audit

The town/city/village layer is tracked separately from counties so a small incorporated place cannot disappear inside a county-level search.

Rules that prevent holes

  1. Use Census BAS26 county and incorporated-place files as the master universe, not a hand-made city list.
  2. Keep Census GEOID/status so renamed, inactive, village, town and city records cannot disappear unnoticed.
  3. Check the local issuing authority first; if records are offline, log the gap instead of treating it as zero activity.
  4. Cross-check MissouriBUYS, MoDOT and Missouri DNR statewide streams regardless of local portal quality.
  5. Use planning/zoning agendas, council packets, development trackers, permits and public notices for earlier private-project signals.
  6. Every customer-facing opportunity keeps an original source link and an as-of date.
