A CSO is a City-approved, Vaughan-based, not-for-profit community organization run by an elected and volunteer board of directors whose prime purpose is to provide recreation, community, or leisure services to the residents of Vaughan. Groups membership must be comprised of 75% residents except in the case of minor sports groups (aged 19 and under), which must be comprised of 90% house league residents.
The application requirements, terms and conditions, and eligibility criteria are defined in the Community Service Organization (CSO) Policy (PDF).
