Reviewer notes

Fetched today. WebFetch returned PDF binary, so the text was extracted locally with pdftotext -layout and the Submission Requirements for Quote, Roofing, Underwriting Reports, and Introduction sections were read directly. Scope matters and is stated in the prose: this is a Texas-only residual market plan, and this particular manual covers a commercial residential program for condominium and homeowner associations. It is cited as one published example of a program checklist, never as evidence of general commercial property market practice. Published: 2025-03-10 Effective: 2025-03-10
