Taka About "in some local organization", what does it modify? Everything listed after "our"?No, "colleagues".
Taka every item including "colleagues" is within the scope of "our", but "in some local organization" modifies "colleagues" only? Grammatically, is such a modification really possible?Yes and yes, in my estimation.
TakaIf it were "in some local community" instead of "in some local organization", then how would you interpret it?Differently: we do not have 'community colleagues'.
TakaSo it's impossible to take it as "colleagues who are in some local community."No, but it's impossible to take it as a modifier only of 'colleagues'; presumably, it would apply to all.
