As a financial and contracts analyst by trade, there are some things that would have concerned me if I were to come across their submitted invoices mentioned both in this article as well as a few other places on local boards. Also a big wtf to me is how they have raised a self-reported over $7m as of halfway through last year, but this denial of $225K is a nail in the coffin for the effort? I'm not accusing anyone of anything, but I'll be curious to hear more details.
