CDR policy

CDR policy: Draft for review. Owner: Assistant City Manager. Review walkthrough 11/20/2026. The policy sets the CDR as the authoritative source for cross-department reporting, the transition period for each wave, how new extracts are requested, and the data quality awareness expectations for departments.
