Paul, MN 55109 <br /> <br />Dear Editor: <br /> <br />Computype, Inc. has been a member of the RoseviUe community for the past 20 years. During that time, our <br />employment base at the Roseville facility has reached 110 fullwtime people. Our annual payroll exceeds $4 <br />million and property taxes approximate $100,000 per year. <br /> <br />Growth provided Computype with the opportunity to expand its facilities. Space and capital demands were such <br />that the cost ofremodeIing was not reasonable using conventional financing instruments. Despite the efforts of <br />the owner of the building, we were forced to seek locations outside Roseville. Our relocation efforts included <br />communities within Minnesota as well as sites outside the State. In nearly all cases, we discussed significant <br />concessions on property taxes as well as loans and outright grants. <br /> <br />Our situation was brought to the attention of the City ofRoseville, who contacted us immediately. They let us <br />know the CityJs objectives have long included maintaining and encouraging economic growth and head of <br />household quality-type jobs. <br /> <br />Through the efforts of the Roseville City Council, the City Manager's office, First Bank and Fruenshew <br />Companies, an economic package was created. This package provided Computype with the necessary financing <br />to stay in Roseville. <br /> <br />It is this type of publici private partnership effort which not only makes Roseville a good place for companies to <br />locate and grow, but provides the citizens with good paying jobs and a growing property tax base. <br /> <br />Roseville residents can be proud of their city government's ability to be creative and to place the best interest of <br />their citizens and taxpayers first. <br /> <br />We are pleased to report Computype will continue its residence in Roseville, Minnesota and will strive to <br />maintain that relationship indefinitely. <br /> <br />Computype; Inc. <br /> <br />Q- ^~~>~ <br /> <br />'R:c~ W.
