Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
2 of the 29 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 27 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 3 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 203 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the median, minimum and maximum published price per inspection type, per unit of pricing (per device, per riser, per square foot, per visit) across every contractor that publishes a number, beside the AHJ's own adopted fee schedule for the same building - which is the part nobody joins.
The derived figures: the share of contractors that publish at all versus quote-only, the spread between the cheapest and dearest published band for the same building size, the total annual obligation for a modelled building (every frequency row in the ITM table priced at the index median), and the AHJ fee as a share of that total by city.
203 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
