How the record works

An LSLR program's outreach is only as good as its ability to prove that outreach happened.

EntryStandard is a compliance middleware layer for LSLR program administration. It sits between the program's outreach activity and the program's obligation to prove that activity happened. Everything else — the homeowner portal, the e-sign ceremony, the dashboards — exists to feed one artifact: the record.

Every attempt is an event

Each outreach attempt — mailing, SMS, email, phone call, door hanger, field visit — is recorded as a discrete, timestamped event against the specific property, with the method used. Responses are events too: a homeowner opening their portal link, viewing their property, accepting the electronic-transaction disclosure, signing, refusing, or acknowledging as an occupant. Nothing is summarized at capture time; counts and rollups are always derived from the underlying events, never stored in their place.

Attempts can carry evidence: a photograph of the notice at the door, a mail-tracking record, a carrier delivery report — fingerprinted at upload and sealed into the same chain as the attempt itself.

Refusals and non-responses are outcomes, not failures

A documented refusal is a compliance outcome. So is a documented non-response after the required attempts. EntryStandard treats both as first-class records: a refusal is captured with the same ceremony and integrity protection as a signed consent, and a non-responsive property is identifiable at any time as one whose attempt-and-method count meets the applicable requirement without a response. Programs report on these outcomes; they do not explain their absence.

The ledger is append-only and tamper-evident

Events enter an append-only ledger in which each record is cryptographically chained to the one before it for that property. Records cannot be updated or deleted — corrections are new events, so the history of the record is itself part of the record. Any retroactive alteration of a stored event breaks the chain and is detectable on verification. The design details are on Security & Evidence.

Consent is a ceremony, not a checkbox

Right-of-entry signatures follow a structured electronic-signature ceremony: disclosure presented and affirmatively accepted, signer identity and claimed authority captured, role rules enforced (a tenant cannot grant the property interest), and the executed instrument rendered to a final document whose SHA-256 fingerprint is stored in the ledger alongside the signature event. The archived document and its fingerprint travel together.

Audit-ready export

For any property, the system produces the complete event history — attempts, methods, dates, outcomes, document fingerprints — in chronological order with chain verification. For a program, it produces the rollup a primacy agency asks for: which properties consented, which refused, which are non-responsive after conforming effort, and the record behind each classification. A sample ProofPack — entirely synthetic — shows what that export looks like.

What the record answers

For any property, the record should answer: Who was contacted? By what method, and when? What did they see? Who responded, and what authority did they claim? What document was executed or refused, and in what version? And why is the property classified as consented, refused, non-responsive, or crew-ready?

Outreach attempts × methods Responded identity + authority Refused reason recorded Non-responsive conforming effort shown Instrument executed + fingerprinted Crew-ready documented outcome — reportable, ledger-backed
Every transition in this flow is a ledger event; every state is derivable from the events beneath it.

What EntryStandard does not do

EntryStandard does not schedule crews, manage construction, or replace the program's project-management tooling. It is deliberately narrow: it is the documentation layer, designed so that the entities doing the work — municipalities and their engineering firms — can adopt it without displacing anything they already run.

The record structures described here are specified publicly in ES-R v1.1, including the crosswalk from each regulatory requirement to the record objects that document it.
