Dear
It's banquet time again! Yes, May 21, 1984, is the annual fund raiser for
Monticello's Industrial Development Committe
This year the Chamber as well as the Industr'al Development Committee and
the City of Monticello have hired a professi nal Economic Development Director.
Monticello is very fortunate to obtain such n individual. He is responsible
for running the day to day operations of the Chamber office and duties of the
Executive Secretary. He works directly with the City Administrator on related
City and Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) activities. As Director of
Economic Development, he is responsible for wide range of responsibilities
that include coordinating all Industrial Development Committee and HRA meetings,
acting as Executive Secretary for both, soli iting industrial and commercial
prospects, and preparation of yearly plans and budgets.

A major responsibility not seen by the public deals with Economic Development

If you're interested in obtaining quality res Its that are proven, we encourage
your attendance along with your spouse or bus'ness associate(s). Your contribution
of $75.00/ticket is tax deductible and will b returned to you many times over
in the future.
If you want to invest in Monticello's future, make your reservations by sending your

3. Abandon both of the above an only decide on one gift for

.
C. RECOMMENDATION:
I have no recommendation on either of the alternatives. However,
I do recommend giving the guest s eaker some type of personalized
gift. It was the consensus of the promotional, publicity and
prospect subcommittee that not only would it be hard to get products
from enough firms, but an indivi al such as Dayton might not like
or appreciate such a gift. More iscussion as a committee should
resolve this.

INCENTIVES TO HELP MONTICE LO'S INDUSTRIES DEVELOP

Minnesota tatute 475, to issue Industrial
Revenue Bonds to assist business and "ndustry. The decision to issue
such bonds is made by the elected fiv ~member City Council, the same
body that governs all City activities and finances.

MONTICELLO HAS THE POPULl\'rION BASE TO ASSURE AVAILABLE SKILLED LABOR
Monticello's working population will grow with your company. Estimates
place the City's population at 3,111 with an estimated 2,665 in the local
labor force. projections put the City's population base at 4,198 by the
year 2000 with Wright County exceeding 99,000.
Monticello industries can also take advantage of Monticello's convenient
location in Central Minnesota. Lying on Interstate 94 and Minnesota
Highway #25, Monticello businesses can have easy access to ship and
receive the bread and butter of their businesses "merchandise."
The average age of Monticello's work force is in the 26-35 age bracket,
reflecting growth potential in the City. They are well educated, too.
In the immediate Monticello Area 55% of adults have high school education,
22% have trade school training, and 11% have college degrees.
In addition to a young, ambitious, and educated work force, opportunity
exists for special tr.aining and education. St. John's University, the
College of St. Benedicts, and St. Cloud State University have a tri-
registration agreement whereby a St. Cloud State University resident can
register and attend classes at the two schools. This flexibility gives
students the ability to effectively pursue and attain their scholastic
goals. The University of Minnesota is also close enough so that commuting
is not a problem.
Vocational training locations in St. Cloud and Anoka give area students
another alternative to academic course work.
Excellent opportunities exist for individuals who desire to enhance their
skills whether it be industrially, professionally, or personally.

10. Consideration of Attendin the Trade Show S onsored b the
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce. (A.P.)
A. REFERENCE AND BACKGROUND:
Several months ago attending this trade show was discussed.
At that time it was suggested tht it was not in our best
interest to attend this show.
Since that time, circumstances h e changed. We have attended
the First Annual Minnesota Small usiness Market Place sponsored
by the Minnesota Business Journal and obtained some good leads.
They are discussed in the Prospect Update Report.
Other economical development centers such as Maple Grove and
Thief River Falls have attended t e above show and told me they
are attending the May 22-23 trade show in Minneapolis.
B. ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
1. Do not participate in Minneapolis Trade Show.
2. Participate in Minneapolis Tade Show.
C. RECOMMENDATION:
.
If we don't attend the Minneapolis Trade Show, we will not only
miss out on a lot of exposure, b t good prospects as well.
Therefore, it is recommended to ttend this show.
