Field notes
The navigation separates searches, contracts and payments, policies, a timeline, and comparisons with other cities. Source links point to specific pages in agreements, policy documents, checks, and audit exports, giving readers a route from a summary claim to its cited record. The page also identifies gaps in what the City produced, so its account is presented with limits rather than as a complete view of the system.
