City of Decatur residents, businesses and DBA members be on the lookout for the January/February issue of the Decatur Focus – we are debuting an entirely new look with glossy paper that is SFI (Sustainable Forestry Initiative) certified and has six extra pages of copy and two extra pages of advertising.
We always have more information than we can squeeze into the issue and this will allow us the space to add more photos and more details thus continuing to keep residents and businesses up-to-date with what is happening in the City of Decatur. We have had a waiting list of advertisers for years so this will give them a little more space as well.
We started the Focus in June 1990 as a black and white publication. Through the years as technology improved, we upgraded the look without substantially increasing the cost. Several years ago we went to full color and, now, with this issue, we are changing the paper slightly and expanding by eight pages.
Our next initiatives will be to put the Focus online in an easier to read format than a PDF with the ability to click immediately on links within the publication and to send electronic mid-month Focus updates. But that is for another day…in the meantime, enjoy the new look and send us your information to share as well as your feedback.
