Instructions

Create permits_geo from permits, the council_districts.crs, and the geometry in permits.
Spatially join permits_geo and the council_districts to get building permits within each council district. Call this permits_by_district.
Count permits in each district, permit_counts, by chaining groupby() and size() methods.
Create counts_df from permit_counts. Reset the index, and name the columns district and bldg_permits.
