Dutch term or phrase: in welke voorhoede ze spelen
Resultaat van de dienstreis was dat Raadsleden zich gerealiseerd hebben in welke voorhoede ze met Stad X spelen.

Dit is figuurlijk bedoeld. Het gaat niet over voetbal... Iemad een suggestie?

the leading-edge position that they are taking
Explanation:
Misschien is een formulering zoals deze bruikbaar in jouw context. De raadsleden zijn zich naar aanleiding van hun werkbezoek blijkbaar (meer) bewust geworden van de voorhoedepositie die zij met stad X innemen. Met andere woorden, de benchmark viel gunstig uit :-)

How relations are.


Explanation:
Het ziet eruit alsof de dienstreis bedoeld is om de onderlinge banden aan te trekken, er is waarschijnlijk een obscuur spreekwoord gebruikt in de brontekst.
