Municipal services and cached planning labels

What this does not say
Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.
- Deprecated: kept for existing integrations. This is a per-address copy of kommune-level figures made by a collector that is not scheduled; the fee columns were blanked on 9 Sep 2026 after a mismatch with KOSTRA and are refilled only when someone runs it. Use municipal_fees (SSB 12842, annual water, sewage, waste and chimney-sweeping fees by kommune and year), population (head count), and local_businesses (registered businesses around the address) instead. There is no replacement yet for eiendomsskatt_promille.
- Cached values; verify current fees with the municipality. The plan labels this section once carried (reguleringsplan, kommuneplanens arealformål, hearings) were never filled by the enrichment; the plan_regulations section reads them live from the national plan base.
Fields
7 of 10 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.

This is a real call against the public demo, from here. What appears below is what the API returned — not a sample.
