The CGS is a very transparent process. Anyone can apply. Shortlisted candidates are announced publically at community council meetings which ANY member of the public can go to. Shortlisted candidates are invited to perform a public presentation to councillors, who then make a final decision on which applications recieve money. In the application, all projects have to make the case for who will benefit from the project. Money awarded is not simply handed over either. Where contractors are required, the council organises and pays for that directly. Everything is properly audited. No mystery, no conspiracy.
