MUNICIPAL PAPERS / READING FILE
The town’s public language is remarkably consistent. Its dates are less helpful.
A broadcast still pairs reassurance with a search headline. Its location caption and names belong to this item; they have not been reconciled with the other records.

QUESTION: Why did the search stop yesterday?
REPLY: The appropriate areas have been examined. We ask that speculation does not interfere with ongoing enquiries.

REPLY: We will take the next question.

There is currently no evidence of an ongoing threat to residents or visitors. Anyone with relevant information is asked to preserve it. The absence of a public warning is not a statement about Alice’s whereabouts.

Seabrook remains open for the season. Our community thanks the volunteers for their time and asks visitors to support local businesses.

Stay with your assigned group. Follow the marked route. Do not cross restricted boundaries. Report anything found before moving it. Completion of an assigned sector does not imply access to every property.
READING COPY / DATE UNVERIFIED
Access beyond the signed boundary is not included in the public route. Restrictions remain in place. The notice supplies no information about who requested the exclusion.

The seaside festival will proceed as scheduled. Music, harbour events and family activities continue. The programme contains no revised search timetable.
PRESS DIGEST / RECONSTRUCTED
A first report asks where Alice was last seen. The details are incomplete.
PRESS DIGEST / RECONSTRUCTED
The reassurance grows longer. The description of the search does not.
PRESS DIGEST / RECONSTRUCTED
The town has a schedule it can confirm. Alice’s story moves beside it.
PRESS DIGEST / RECONSTRUCTED
Visitors, bookings, a successful season. Near the bottom: the case remains active and ongoing.
An operations sheet separates completed sectors from restricted and unsearched areas. Its coastline and labels differ from the annotated town map. “Land search complete” does not mean every place was searched.

The sheet marks 80% complete, with other areas excluded. It does not specifically name the pump house. Do not convert an unnamed zone into a confirmed location.
