# Parks backlog priorities — Commons edition

Open repair and improvement items, published bureau scores, property summaries and dated closure-risk references.

## Use

Python 3.10+ standard library; no third-party packages.
Run from the extracted package directory: `python3 analyze.py`. Compare the result to `expected-results.json`.
Read `schema.json`, `sources.json` and `publisher-README.txt` and `LICENSE.txt` before adapting a query. Original public files retain their source terms and dates.

## Coverage

Published open backlog items; not all repair needs or funded projects.

Observation dates: 2026-10-12 backlog extract; 2025-01 closure-risk briefing; 2023-11 historical estimates.

## Limitations

- Bureau scores are not a funding ranking; Lab bands and flags are interpretations.
- Historical estimates are 2023 proposals, not current repair costs.
- Property matches and January 2025 flags do not establish current closure status.

## Joins

- backlog-priorities.propertyId → backlog-priority-properties.propertyId is many-to-one; item id is unique.
- Closure-risk references have multiple asset families per property; never join them to money rows without aggregation.
- For budgets, group item rows by propertyId first, then join to parks-budgets.property_id for ONE fiscal_year. Preserve unmatched/systemwide locations.

## Unsupported questions

- What would each repair cost today?
