STRONG EVIDENCE evidence grade — master store (canonical CSV)
Combined Graph record U-01862 · provenance: canonical master store (CSV), record CTL-P-0418. Master record source: CTL seed 2026-10-16 — UNVERIFIED, verify before public citation.
Honorary Chicago catalog (street category page) establishes: the City of Chicago designated the honorary sign 'Honorary Dr. Donda West Way'; location 78th Street from South Shore Drive to Coles Avenue; approved June 2024 (fetched in full 2026-10-17). Wave-13 update (2026-10-17): a genuine search of Chicago Councilmatic, conducted via live browser on 2026-10-17, found no enacted honorary designation record for this name — only O2024-0009679 'Dr. Donda West Way' — STALE, referred 2024-06-12, never passed. Chicago Legistar was unreachable that day (soft block: 'Invalid parameters!'), so the ordinance-record route remains open if a record surfaces there. Stamp remains STRONG EVIDENCE on the Honorary Chicago catalog basis. Explicitly noted: the only legislative item found is a stale, never-passed referral; no enacted designation exists in the record as of 2026-10-17.
