Residential solar permitting at the 0 Texas permitting offices a person at TexPTO has checked against the issuing office — how long review takes, what each one asks for, and where third-party plan review stands. It is not a survey of Texas, and it does not describe the offices we have not checked.

This report is not published yet
This report publishes only the offices a person at TexPTO has checked against the issuing office. That count is zero, so there is no report to publish — 25 checked offices is the floor.
When it does publish it will cover the offices our permit desk has checked, and only those — whichever they turn out to be. It will not cover all 2,117 offices in our database, and it will name the ones it does cover.
In the meantime, look up a specific address below — you will get what we hold for the office that would issue that permit, labelled with where each piece of it came from, including where that is an AI model rather than a person.
These are counts of our own database, not of this report and not findings about Texas. Only the first tile describes what you have been reading. An office in the database that nobody here has checked is not an office that is slow, or fast, or anything else — it is one this report does not cover.

checked by a person at TexPTO against the issuing office
Our permit desk has not signed a single row off against the office that issues the permit, which is why this report has nothing to publish.
0
carry a contractor's correction that we accepted
A contractor who files permits told us we had something wrong and we agreed. That is a person, and it is not us checking with the office — so it is counted apart, and it does not put a row into this report.
This page covers the offices we have checked. Look up a specific address and you get whatever we hold for the jurisdiction that will actually issue that permit — checked or not — with the same labelling about where each number came from, including where that is an AI model rather than a person.
