01

Classify the words

An adopted motion, an administration commitment and a staff target are not treated as the same thing.

02

Follow the evidence

Later minutes, registries, contracts and reports are matched back to the original commitment.

03

Show what is missing

Authorization is not completion. When the public record stops, the tracker says so plainly.
