ELK RIVER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
Elk River, Minnesota
The purpose of this letter is to give a brief description of
our company, provide cost estimates for proposed site
acquisition, and utility improvements . Doing so in the hope
that some financial help can be obtained to make it possible
for us to construct a new building on the 1 .4 acre lot
bordering Hwy. 1 in the Elk River Industrial park.
The company started as Douglas Filter Company in 1981 .
Working out of my basement in Delano, MN. in my spare time,
• I manufactured small quantities of a Motorcycle Oil Filter I
designed and patented. Sales grew as more people became
aware of Perf-form Oil Filters. I purchased a home in Big
Lake township in June of 1985 and obtained a conditional use
permit to operate the business on the property.
I incorporated and changed the company name to PERF-FORM
PRODUCTS, INC. in September of 1991 . Presently we have
13 products, manufactured from tin-plated steel , filter
paper, Plastisol glue, and assorted gaskets or 0-Rings
to make the different filters . The filters are packaged and
shipped to our 27 distributors in the USA, Canada, The
Netherlands, Sweden, and Germany. I am to the point that in
order to operate efficiently or to grow any further it is
imperative that we have more space. We have grown more than
30% a year in the past and I expect this to continue.

The quote obtained from Aho Construction, Inc . (the building
contractor) to put in the required extension of Service
Drive, 60 ' on the adjoining lot, and 169' on the proposed
lot came in at $13, 000 . Sewer & water extensions to the
building would cost $5, 000. and another $7, 385 . for a drive
way & parking lot. These costs along with the purchase price
of the property itself ($20 to $26 K) would bring the site
acquisition and improvement cost conservatively to
$47, 385 . , that' s not including the landscaping that would be
necessary.
It would be nice to locate in the Elk River Industrial Park
and keep our school tax dollars in the same district, but
• with out substantial assistance in some form to offset the
site costs I don't believe it will be possible .
Sincerely,
cjg-'274/4-77//- -
