Box 368 Elk River, Minnesota 55330-0368 Telephone: (763) 441-4112 Fax: (763)441-5176 April 5, 2000 City of Elk River 13065 Orono Parkway Elk River, Minnesota 55330 Attention: Mr. Marc D. Nevinski Dear Marc, In response to your letter of April 4, 2000, here is the information you have requested. R.& W Enterprises, L.L.C. is being formed by, Mark Rothfork and John Weicht, who are principals in two existing businesses in Elk River. The purpose of this new endeavor is to create needed commercial rental space in the city of Elk River. Our plan is to build as demand requires. This is not primaryto either of our businesses and growth will be restricted to • capability to carry vacant rental space until occupied. Mark Rothfork, the "R", owns an existing building that houses his powder coating company, Ultra Image, and rental space for three other businesses. John Weicht, the "W", is the managing partner in John C. Weicht & Assoc. LLP, a local general contracting firm that specializes in design build work in the commercial and industrial fields. With other investors, he owns over $4,000,000 in other real estate holdings in the Elk River area. R &W Enterprises, L.L.C. will be owned equally between the two partners, unless financial constraints dictate otherwise. The construction management, as well as future management will be done by John C. Weicht & Assoc. LLP. There are no current prospects for tenants;in this proposed building. Small industrial tenants cannot wait six months or longer when they need space. This has been verified by calls from existing small industrial firms looking for immediate rental space. When we cannot help them, they go elsewhere. We feel Elk River is losing potential business because of a lack of adequate space available for this type of rental. Thank you for your help in this matter. Sincerely, John C. Weicht R & W ENTERPRISES, L.L.C. P. O.
