“The Web site and weekly newsletter will join sibling publications already serving Oakland County, the Ann Arbor area and western Michigan. Tri-Cities Business Review is produced in cooperation with associated daily newspapers The Saginaw News and The Bay City Times, and with online affiliate Mlive.com.
