The City Journals focus on sharing news and information that is specific to the community that the Journal serves. We actively seek out good news as part of our ongoing effort to strengthen the communities. However, we must preserve balance in our newspapers and must cover issues that are at times controversial. We are a resource for cities, community groups and individuals to get messages of common interest out to their neighbors. We believe our most important role is to give community members the information that they need to form an opinion on the topics that concern their community. This is why each Journal is different, completely independent of the other Journals. From time to time, news and information may appear in more than one Journal because of its relevance to more than one community, but our focus is to reflect the individual character and needs of a community through the Journal that it serves.
