Justin, I'm guessing you have looked at the import guidelines [1], but if you haven't, you can find them on the wiki. The import guidelines talk about community involvement, licensing, documentation and the actual import. For community involvement, you might want to join us on the US Slack import channel [2].
>From looking at the data, the one major piece missing is location. While the address is there, that means you'll have to rely on a geocoder which probably won't provide the accuracy needed to properly locate the building. When you document the process, please specify how you plan to determine the location. If you do plan on using a geocoder, it's important to use one that won't cause a licensing issue.
