  • Record created from Edinburg's full city-authored SWM package: 4 garbage areas + 24 sectors + 4 recycle quadrants + brush 4/19/114 areas/sectors/subsectors.
  • Holiday QA R5 INCONCLUSIVE: cityofedinburg.com SWM index, services and FAQs pages grep-checked - zero 'holiday' mentions and no schedule/holiday PDFs (only an org chart). City appears to post holiday collection changes as news items rather than a static rule. Manual/news monitoring needed.
  • Holiday QA R6 (2026-09-24) INCONCLUSIVE: city /alert/index.php (live fetch) carries only a May 2026 boil-water notice - no solid-waste holiday alerts; SWM pages remain holiday-free (R5). Holiday collection changes appear only as transient news/social posts. Wayback CDX shows only a 'christmas tree solid waste 2024.png' graphic (Dec 2024), which hints at an annual holiday notice pattern but carries no machine-readable rule.
