# Get notifications when something at a location is new Chicago Cityscape can send emails to you when something – see the list below – is new or updated. Every morning, our system checks for new and updated information at hundreds of locations that members are tracking. ## What information prompts an email An email will be sent if any of the following information is added or updated in our database: - A building permit for renovation, new construction, or demolition is issued for the tracked address or within 150 feet [1] (Chicago only) - A building violation is issued for the tracked address or within 150 feet [1] (Chicago only) - A property transaction (sale) (Cook County only, updated quarterly) - A new or updated news article, rendering, or other document - A new environmental inspection (Chicago only) - A new environmental permit is issued (Chicago only) - An ordinance is added or has a status change (Chicago only) - A business license is issued (Chicago only) - A property is added to the Cook County Land Bank Authority inventory (Cook County only) - A property is added to the Chicago-owned land inventory (Chicago only) - A recording associated with the PIN is added (this requires that the address you are tracking is tracked from a PIN-based Property Report - contact us if you're unsure) (Cook County only) ## Notes 1. Sometimes new data that occurs *near* the tracked address is included. This is because sometimes a member will track one address but the new data has an address that is adjacent to the tracked address and we want to ensure the member sees that. 2. Your [[Personal notes|private notes]] may appear in the Property Report's email notification. Since there can be some time between emailed updates it's easy to forget why you subscribed to a location. With your private note there, you're reminded!
