This is an experiment. I took data from several sources but mainly from here:

Census dot gov

2007-2008 are projections (probably bad projections).

Click the play button on the time component to see the permits go up and down. 1-600 permits in red. 601-3000 permits in yellow. 3001+ permits in green. 1 permit equals 1 meter of height.

I think i'll do something more interesting next.
