Each site is one Watermark investigation. The page color says what opens; the campus line is the build on the ground — two different clocks.

The Record Teardown

One reusable, data-driven pattern — props are a record + a citation — that makes the source → structured read → meaning → verify → connect transformation visible. One component, a selectable layout prop, three teaching shapes. Shown on the Tetra Tech Opinion of Probable Cost.

The contract

<RecordTeardown
  record={ recordId, citation }
  layout="split | scroll | annotated"
/>

Authoring a new teardown = pick a record, write three sentences. Same feeds as the library — the data never forks.

The five parts

The source — artifact + provenance, messiness visible
What we read — structured extraction, confidence shown
What it reveals — plain meaning + load-bearing number
How to check — evidence tag + verify link
Where it connects — doors into the library

Evidence tags

[verified]
Read from a cited record or a live source — confirmed and reproducible.
[inference]
A labelled reading or derivation from cited inputs — reasoning, not a record.
[reference]
An outside published specification or dataset — authoritative, but not a record about this site.
[open]
Withheld, unresolved, or not yet checked — a question, not a verdict.

[derived] → inference · [live] → verified (mapped, minimal)

The public's road package is priced to the dollar — $14,223,081 — yet drainage is just 7.5% of it, the only one of six items detailed, with no design-storm basis and no detention shown. A number that precise on a scope that thin is the tell.

and then — that $14.2M estimate becomes a “private” contribution in the deal itself, where the clauses decide who really pays.

③ What it reveals

A public roundabout package is booked as a private gift of $14,500,000 — but §5.5 lets public grants refund the developer, §9.13 demands notice before any record is released, and §9.17 waives competitive bidding. The label says “private”; the clauses say otherwise.
