### 2100 Crystal Drive
`#600 ? WHITE ?` had incorrect sort codes.
#### Lighting Control
I took off lighting per plans (E510)
in spite of proposal stating "local control".
Will have to be changed.
#### Labor Factor
Fire Alarm

#### Fixtures
> [!failure]
> Several fixtures were erroneously based on NM cable.
I built some fixtures with \#12/3 in areas with emergency lighting
to be an unswitched hot.
Joel is having me change them to \#12/2.
#### Units
> [!failure]
> One unit type typical was missing `Area` quantities.
> Another had no takeoff.

Suppose a true cost model,
accounting for all relevant information available at time $t$.
$C(t)$ returns a distribution whose [scale](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_parameter)
decreases with $t$, and $C(0)$ maps to a single value.
$t>0$ is time until the final payment.
