Council district areas and permit counts

In order to create a normalized value for the building permits issued in each council district, you will need to find the area of each council district. Remember that you can leverage the area attribute of a GeoSeries to do this. You will need to convert permit_counts to a DataFrame so you can merge it with the council_districts data. Both permit_counts and council_districts are available for you.
