Either the local entrants were lame, or too expensive, if you believe that it was necessary to do this:

Dayton chooses Colorado firm to create new website

DAYTON — The City of Dayton Office of Economic Development has contracted Atlas Advertising, LLC out of Denver, Colo. for $45,000, to create an economic development website that promotes the city to businesses.

The award-winning company beat out 15 other bids, including five local firms, to create the site that will feature state-of-the-art search and database tools to show businesses what Dayton has to offer.

I just love that a pro-local business organization contracted with an out of state provider. It's almost Onion material.

And a $45K contract passes for news around here?

^ Yeah, a few minutes ago I tripped over this amazing little bit of "business news" on another forum, and didn't know whether to just laugh or cry. Guess our Dayton marketing department wanted to cut a deal that included some skiing behind the scenes. For shame!
