Discussion. Tax base would be one, we will have to make a list of the positive things, whatever would be interesting to Businesses looking to relocate. Then we can work it into the copy. The way the procedure would go is: take the photographs at the same time the photographs are being shot, we would do a preliminary copy, which we all would review. When the copy is approved, and we decide which pictures we want to use, then we go to layout. After review of the layout, then it goes to a printer and we review it again before it goes to print.
