text: I challenge Paul Conte to answer these questions.
  
  Describe the organization entrusted to use the roughly $250K settlement money from the LUBA appeal of Capstone in the interest of neighborhoods...
  
  * Where can we read your organization's structure and processes (e.g., bylaws, incorporation as a nonprofit)?
  
  * Is this group TrustTheNeighbors.org or some other entity?
  
  * Who are your officers and how are they elected?
  
  * When and where are your meetings?
  
  * Are your meetings open to the public?
  
  * What is the process to decide how to use these funds for further appeals?
  
  * How many individuals actively participate?
  
  * Are any city staff or councilors involved in these decisions?
  
  * Are any members of city boards and commissions members of your group?
  
  Any group that expects to be treated seriously by City Council in public processes needs to be transparent.
  
  Yet you have refused to be forthright in your role feeding Councilors Brown and Clark the proposal you now support in this op-ed.
