We have draft zoning maps ready but they must be limited to staff and select reviewers until the public release. I am cautious about over-restricting access and making reviewers complain, but I also can't risk an accidental leak. Advise how to set access controls and document-level protections that limit distribution yet allow necessary review, and give the short instruction to include when sharing with internal reviewers so they understand the boundary.
