Audit summary and fixes applied:
1) Spelling / proper-name inconsistencies - Issue: The transcript uses multiple spellings for firm and staff names (e.g., "Manek and Smith Group" / "Mannequin Smith Group" / "Mannix Smith Group"; "Uhazy" / "Uhasi" / "Mahazy"). - Severity: medium. - Fix: Standardized to the form used in the approval resolution and plan references where possible: "Mannix Smith Group" for plan-sheet references and used the transcript first-appearance spelling "Jacob Uhasi" for planning staff. Noted ambiguity in audit.
2) Buca de Beppo / Boca De Pepo inconsistency - Issue: Transcript alternates spellings of the former restaurant name. - Severity: low. - Fix: Normalized to "Buca de Beppo" (most widely known spelling and consistent with earlier transcript usage).
3) Attribution lock and quotes - Issue: All direct quotes in the article are attributed only to speakers listed in the speaker whitelist (e.g., Christopher Waterman, Jake Arlette, Adam Meyer, Leah Michaels). No unattributed quotes were included. No further fix needed.
4) Chronology and framing - Issue: Ensure approval is presented as a recommendation to city council (not final city approval). - Severity: high if misstated. - Fix: Article explicitly states the commission’s action is a recommendation and describes next procedural steps.
5) Quantitative precision - Issue: Some values (affected population estimate) are approximate; article flags where numbers are from petitioner claims or staff materials (e.g., 80% water recycling, 14,229 sq ft, 13 outdoor/14 indoor vacuum spaces). - Severity: low. - Fix: Marked source for each figure and avoided asserting unverified extrapolations.
All items above were corrected in the revised article text; no new factual assertions were added beyond the transcript and staff materials.
