Audit: issues found in initial draft (spelling, clarity, numeric inconsistencies, attributions)
This audit reviews the draft articles and the supporting material against the meeting transcript and the reporting standards required by the committee.

Findings (high-level):
- Numeric inconsistency: The meeting transcript uses both $250 and $2.50 figures when referring to per-concert marketing allocations; the draft must not correct or conflate these numbers without direct evidence. The draft reports the per-concert amount exactly as found in the transcript and flags the inconsistency for staff follow-up.
- Attribution gaps: Several motions were recorded in the transcript without a clearly identified mover or seconder. The articles mark these movers as "not specified" rather than invent names or roles.
- Clarity/agency: The committee discussed raffle/lottery legality but did not cite a specific ordinance; the article avoids inventing the legal citation and reports the committee’s statement that additional legal approvals would be required.
- Chronology/ordering: The articles preserve the order of substantive business items and explicitly note which decisions were informational versus formal votes.

Audit categories and issues (select):
- Spelling: []

- Misidentification: [ {"type":"missing_mover_second","description":"Motions approved/seconded in the meeting lack named individuals in the transcript; articles mark mover/second as 'not specified'.","severity":"major"} ]
- Out_of_context: []
- Quantitative precision: [ {"type":"approximation_needed","description":"Budget line-item references (e.g., 'marketing now 6,000') are reported as discussed but the article asks staff to confirm exact allocations and reporting metrics.","severity":"medium"} ]
- Process clarity: [ {"type":"decision_vs_direction","description":"Ensure articles distinguish between formal votes (sponsorship package approval) and direction/requested follow-ups (staff asked to share communications metrics).","severity":"medium"} ]
- Context clarity: [ {"type":"town_authority_limits","description":"Articles avoid attributing town-run raffle authority without citation; reporter notes the town's legal constraints were cited without a specific ordinance reference.","severity":"medium"} ]

- Bias: []
- Duplicate: []

Action taken: The article texts were revised to preserve transcript wording for contested numeric items, to avoid inventing attributions, and to flag follow-up tasks for staff to supply clarifying numbers and metrics.
