Norris <br /> <br />Please consider this an application for tax increment financing <br />assistance, as per Resolution #87-213. Anoka Sports Center Inc. is a <br />Minnesota corporation holding franchise dealerships with Kawasaki, Suzuki, <br />Arctic Cat and Ski Doo. As President and owner I purchased Anoka Sports <br />Center in October of 1986. <br /> <br />During the first year of business I increased sales of parts, motorcycles <br />and recreational vehicles by 75% and have a definite need to expand. ", <br />My intentions are to construct a new building with a larger showroom for <br />those vehicles and a larger service department to meet our customers <br />needs. There will also be a specialty shop for the repair and rebuilding <br />of motorcycle and recreational vehicle motors. An additional building <br />will be for customer's units waiting for service and for new units. The <br />two structures will consist of a 10,000 square foot masonry building, <br />and a 4,000 square foot steel clad building. <br /> <br />Although I am considering sites in Coon Rapids, I believe Ramsey would <br />be a good location. Being an established business, a large portion of <br />our customers come from Anoka, Ramsey and the rural areas to the north, <br />northwest. The proposed site is Lot 1 Block 1 Riverview West. I would <br />like to request $75,000 to assist in the total cost of the project. This <br />money will be used for lot improvements including: grading, soil corrections, <br />paving and landscaping. The estimated value of the project will be <br />$435,000 and I am anticipating a 9/30/88 completion date. <br /> <br />In the near future my intentions are to expand further, by adding <br />small boats and watercraft to our product lines. There is an excellent <br />market in this locality since we are the only dealer between Elk River <br />and Coon Rapids. At the present time we employ twelve people. I expect <br />a substantial increase in sales as we expand and anticipate our workforce <br />to increase to acconnxxlate this growth. We appreciate your time in <br />considering this request. If you have any questions or a need for <br />additional infonnation please contact me. <br /> <br /> <br />cc: file <br />s <br />JPN: ss <br />
