Our verification notes

Three principals carry the CFM credential on official municipal contract letterhead, which is stronger evidence than a staff page. Its own job postings require PE plus CFM for the public works flood control project manager role, consistent with what the contracts show. Google profile exists but carries no rating, so none is published.
