Office of: <br />JOEL R. HANSON, Administrator <br />515 Little Canada Road <br />Little Canada, MN 55117 <br />612-484 -2177 <br />FAX: 612. 484.4538 <br />February 23, 1990 <br />CITY OF LITTLE CANADA <br />RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA <br />TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />RE: Metro East Development Partnership (MEDP) <br />MAYOR <br />Micheal Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Bin Blesener <br />Rick Collova <br />Jim LaValle <br />Pursuant to your direction, I have contacted Business Development <br />Services to obtain Pat Pelstring's opinion as to the value of our <br />continued membership in the above - referenced organization. Based on <br />my conversation with Mr. Pelstring, the following points of <br />consideration were developed: <br />*1989 dues were $1,000; <br />*1990 dues requested are $1,100; <br />*MEDP has the "best" data base for growth statistics <br />available for the East Metro area; <br />*MEDP has done a good job of increasing the awareness <br />level of developers and financiers regarding development <br />opportunites in the area; <br />*We have received at least $1,000 worth of value from <br />their marketing efforts. <br />*MEDP's prospecting for developers will favor underdeveloped <br />communities (those with vacant land) over cities such as <br />Little Canada just as a matter of practicality. <br />Hopefully, this information will help you in making your decision <br />regarding continued membership. <br />Page 70 <br />
