Loop free topology recommendations

I have the next topology in a three floor bulding:

I have an access switch per floor. Building is part of a main campus with another building. The other building have the same topology. The L3 distribution switches of each building are linked to two L3 core switches over L3 links.

I know is better a L3 link between the distribution switches for a loop free topology  but I need vlan 10 span on two access switches. I want to use RPVST+. I have some questions about the implementation:

1- If I don´t allow 20, 30, 40, 50 and voice vlans over the trunk link between the distro switches, the topology will be loop free for these vlans?

2- Can I setup a p2p vlan between the distro switches and work with ospf or eigrp over this trunk link for intervlan routing?

3-Beside vlan 10 and the p2p vlan, should i allow pass management vlan and native vlan over the trunk link between the distro switches?

4- Is recommendable to setup the management vlan like the native vlan on trunk links?

5- Can I setup HSRP or GLBP on the distro switches with this topology (taking into consideration the p2p vlan i want to create)? Wil I need some extra configuration for HSRP or GLBP can work?

6- Should I setup HSRP or GLBP for the management vlan and the p2p vlan?

7- The L3 distro switches also need the management vlan or i can use ip loopback for manage this devices?

8- Do you recommend a voice vlan per floor or just one voice vlan for all the building?

 

Thanks in advance for your help
