Correction desk

The baseline changed before the narrative did.

  • COR-003: Replaced the unresolved Dual-Brand Hotel hearing status with the recorded April 15 City Council site-plan action. Audit trail
  • COR-004: Replaced the stale Viceroy hearing-not-noticed status with the recorded advisory recommendation and unresolved Council disposition. Audit trail
Weekly dossier gate

No new dossier cleared this evidence cut.

The verified changes are useful operating intelligence, but they do not yet support a distinct thesis-led weekly issue. The latest dossier remains the current long-form read.
