"We're a strong believer in economic development - it's a pretty simple equation to know that in our business if our community does well, we do well. So economic development has always been part of our plan, in particular as TREO was formed. We've been very enthusiastic in our support for TREO and the work that's being done. In a short time TREO and the efforts of its members and the local governments have contributed what looks like over a billion dollars in favorable economic development to this community. And I like to think that's just the beginning."
