Would you still use building=civic for power utility offices when it's a
commercial company ? The power distribution in Belgium is complex. The
network is ran/owned by a government institution, the actual power
distribution by commercial providers. So when you want a contract to get
electricity you go to a commercial entity. So building=civic is not
suitable there (I think)
