Section 19
§19 — Missing Documents, Images & Renderings Register
Status: [DRAFT — register, will be maintained]
Principle: Name what is missing, who has it, and what we have asked for. Nothing accusatory — just a clear ledger.
19.1 Why this section exists
A platform of this scale generates thousands of documents — design drawings, renderings, photography, technical specs, bond documents, lease detail, vendor agreements, MOUs, board minutes. Not all of them are with us.
Some of that is fine: many documents live correctly with the parties that own them (NBCU's, Gray legal, bond counsel, design firms). Some of it is not fine: documents that should be in the campus operating record are not, or have not been transmitted on closeout, or are sitting with the developer / architect / designer in a way that is friction-inducing rather than policy-driven.
This section names what's missing — calmly. It is not an accusation document. It is a request register.

19.3 Why the register stays in the master doc
Two reasons:
1. Visibility. The CEO sees, at a glance, what we have asked for and have not received. That visibility — held neutrally — is the only durable forcing function.
2. Fairness. Each item names where it likely sits, not who is at fault. Many gaps are normal (privileged with the right party). Some are friction. The register lets both kinds resolve calmly.
19.4 The closeout standard (going forward)
To prevent this from recurring on Phase II:
1. Every contract has a closeout package definition — record drawings, specs, warranties, brand assets, photography, vendor list — owed to the campus operating record at substantial completion.
2. Closeout packages are a payment milestone, not a goodwill request.
3. The §22 register has an entry per closeout package, opened at contract execution, closed only when received.
This is industry-standard practice. We are not inventing anything — we are making sure it happens.
19.5 Open items
- TBD Confirm canonical master plan version with developer + planner.
- TBD Set first formal closeout request packet (single document, polite, dated, listing each item).
- CONFIRM Custodian seat for the campus document of record (recommend Operating Lead).
The tone of every request: "We are building the operating record for the platform; please send the items below." No accusation, ever. The register is the safeguard.
