Has your publication noted any industrial trends in the number of projects (expansions/relocations) over the past 10 years? If so, which particular industries have seen the most or least growth or a decline?

You can get this kind of information from industry associations. As far as expansions and relocations are concerned, our Annual Corporate Survey, published in the December/January issue, gauges our reader's location plans and priorities. You can find the 2006 Survey results on our website at www.areadevelopment.com. - Editor

I would like to reprint your ranking list of the site selection factors from your Annual Corporate Survey in our chamber publication citing Area Development as the source.

As economic development director for the Norwalk area, I often have occasion to share industry activities with various constituents. With that in mind, I'd like to share insights from your Annual Corporate Survey with my board of directors, which oversees the economic development activities of a nonprofit organization.
