EDITOR’S NOTES I have a particular affection for October. I can never put my finger on why it specifically appeals to me so I have determined that it boils down to several seasonal offerings. The fall leaves are at their peak, the kids are gearing up for Halloween and the cold and crisp nights provide a sense of renewed optimism that fall can bring us. It is not just families that sense that change is in the air, companies across the continent, municipalities, counties, and airports also have shifted priorities to meet the autumn months. At Business View Publications, it is always a pleasure to capture some of the fall momentum in our profile features, bringing up-to-the-minute information to our business readers. As we fully embrace the season in our October issue, the top priorities for municipalities and organizations across North America continue to be the best practices, sound initiatives, and infrastructure upgrades needed to sour through the second half of the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023. Focusing on key policies while adapting to economic challenges, and putting resident and customer-first policies in place to meet the demands take center stage for the municipalities, business organizations, and airports that we covered for this issue. We landed at several leading regional airports and sat down with Airport Directors including Alpena County Regional Airport, Jamestown Regional Airport, and Rick Husband Amarillo International Airport to discuss their airport master plans, meeting continued aviation growth and their economic link to the community and region they serve. In-depth profile features filled our pages with city officials from Bernardsville, New Jersey, Calabasas, California, Conway, South Carolina, Lovejoy, Georgia, Dixon, California, Springdale, Arizona, and Terrell, Texas among other fast-growing municipalities. Each region is embracing the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 and firmly focusing its civic efforts towards infrastructure projects and business growth as well as providing residents what is on their wish list. Continued commercial and industrial growth coupled with residential growth have propelled these municipalities into representing some of the fastest-growing regions across North America. Companies profiled this month included Augusta Lawn Care Service, AvenueWest, Canadian Energy Protection Corporation, Elettric80, and Stern Laboratories Inc. among other leading businesses and organizations. Looking ahead, all these companies show leadership and produce unparalleled projects to increase their business foothold. All these companies are revving their economic engines towards further growth as we head towards 2025. As we continue to bring you the very best sector and industry-focused features, we hope that you take time for yourself to soak in the early fall air, sit down, and enjoy our sector-focused features.
