Staff Memo To: Economic Development Commission Members From: Cathy Bennett, Economic Development Coordinator Date: September 15, 1994 Agenda Item: Report on Business Retention & Development Program • At the request of the Commission, City Administrator, Samantha Orduno, Mark Malone and I met with the directors of the Community Resource Partnership who are the consultants managing the North Metro Business Retention and Development Program for the Retention and Development. A very clear message was relayed regarding the dissatisfaction with the interview process and, in particular, the actions of one interviewer. The following process was outlined: * The interviewer in question will not participate in Mounds View interviews. * The City of Mounds View will rank all remaining companies on the basis of importance of attendance by either City staff of an EDC Commission member. * City staff will meet with the interviewers and educate them on the importance of the program to the City, the history of the business climate in Mounds View and the future vision of the community (Focus 2000). * A message will be given to each interviewer that at least one day notice shall be given to City staff regarding appointments. City staff will try to understand the circumstances that may not allow this to happen and work within those constraints. In addition, attached is a list of Mounds View businesses. Those interviews that have been completed are circled and those that have been sent surveys are stared. A number next to each company represents the level of priority that the City places on attending the interview due to either size of business or past relationship with the company. An updated list on completed interviews will be provided at the Commission meeting. Also, I have included those "red flags" that were uncovered from either the survey or the interview and the action that has been taken or is proposed.

Focus 2000 revealed an urgent need to place a high priority on the redevelopment of highway 10 with the stated goal as follows for 1994: Create a Plan to Redevelop Highway 10 into a Community Oriented Boulevard The EDC is charged with the creation of this plan. I think it may be helpful to come up with a vision statement that the can use as a guideline when preparing the redevelopment plan for highway 10. The vision statement is what you would like the direction of the plan to be. In other words, in the perfect world, what does the community want Highway 10 to develop into? What will its purpose be to the community? You do not always meet your vision but rather it is something to aspire to. To develop the vision statement we need to review the goal and action steps that were developed in the Focus 2000 Strategic Planning Session. I have included the Focus 2000 Implementation Plan for your review. Highway 10 is addressed on page 16 under Goal #7. We will collectively develop a vision statement at the EDC meeting. The Action Steps for 1994 are clearly those outlined in the Focus 2000 report but additions or clarifications can be made to provide more concise detail as to our direction for 1994. • IIIStaff Memo To: Economic Development Commission Members From: Cathy Bennett, Economic Development Coordinator Date: September 15, 1994 Agenda Item: Consideration of Format for Highway 10 Inventory I have included a draft list of items to include in the inventory of highway 10.

Economic Development Authority Bylaws and List of Members Per your request, attached is the Economic Development Authority Bylaws and list of members.
