Audit findings: 1) Quantitative precision: a figure cited in the transcript for total levy/interest appeared as "$45,424,000"; the meeting record did not provide context or corroboration for that number. Because the figure could not be reliably interpreted from the transcript alone, it was removed from article text and stored as a clarifying detail instead. 2) Agency clarity: the transcript used the acronym "LEC" without expansion; the articles retained the acronym and flagged for staff to expand in publication if an authoritative full name is available. 3) Attribution and speaker identity: where names were explicitly presented in the transcript (e.g., "Dan Lynn," "Tina Bertrand," "Ryan Erickson"), those names were used. For speakers not explicitly named, the assistant used stable functional labels (e.g., "Chair," "Committee member"). Revisions made: removed the unclear $45,424,000 figure; ensured quotations map to speakers identified in the transcript; normalized the bank name to "Security National Bank"; added provenance spans for each article. No other substantive facts were changed; unclear or unsupported figures were either removed or labeled as not specified.
