Start with convoy manifests and the road crew’s surface reports. It is the source used to decide whether a convoy can make the posted delivery time when the last mile freezes first; it is not the decision itself. The rule only works if the source describes conditions at the salt shed on the east road.

Known: the current file counts 35 loads arriving before a road advisory changes, compared with 32 in the prior window. The service office posts the new schedule and records its first operating count. The entries have dates and a named clerk.

Disputed: Road crews report passable stone at the gate. Drivers report ice on the shaded turn just beyond it. One side emphasizes the posted total; the other points to the final mile is shaded after the river bridge.

Why it matters: the decision determines which residents can rely on the service and which staff must carry out the change. The file does not settle that by itself.

Next: The responsible office has begun the follow-up set by the board, which approved a narrower exception with an appeal route.
