CADD pumps such as the CADD-PCAR, CADD-TPNH, CADD-Micro, CADD- <br /> PLUS% and CADD-Prizm' pumps are compact and lightweight, allowing freedom <br /> of movement during infusion. The pumps can be programmed to deliver <br /> medications on a continuous, intermittent, tapered or on-demand basis. They can <br /> be used in a variety of clinical settings. <br /> The pumps deliver medication from specially designed Medication Cassette <br /> Reservoirs, or from flexible IV bags with the use of CADD Administration Sets. <br /> Anti-siphon valves are either integrated into these products or provided as <br /> accessories to prevent unregulated gravity infusion that can result from improperly <br /> attached reservoirs or administration sets. <br /> A microprocessor allows the different pumps to be programmed for the different <br /> infusion profiles. The pumps are designed to minimize clinician pump intervention <br /> and maximize patient compliance. These ambulatory infusion pumps are designed <br /> to provide patients with mobility and an improved quality of life. <br /> The Mounds View facility is the company's principal final assembly and <br /> distribution center. As such, the nature of the company's 65 jobs is that they are <br /> generally highly skilled, and very well paid. The average compensation ranges <br /> from $25,000 to $35,000 per year. The company's current employment draws <br /> heavily from the Mounds View area and the company has a strong desire to work <br /> through this issue and remain in Mounds View. <br /> SUMMARY <br /> This project is unique in terms of the nature and the process for assistance. <br /> Although we believe there will be additional tax increments generated through the <br /> build-out of both the Fiskars/Portable Products and Sims Deltec space, we do not <br /> believe that the increments will be sufficient to provide the cash flow for this <br /> request. <br /> However, the Mounds View Business Park generates very substantial excess <br /> increments which can be utilized to benefit the local economy and to retain and <br /> create new jobs. Without direct assistance from the City of Mounds View, <br /> Fiskars/Portable Products will be required to relocate to other space outside of the <br /> city. <br /> • <br />
