f "ity of <br /> <br />E <br /> <br />River <br /> /~FROM: <br /> <br /> DATE: <br /> <br /> SUBJECT: <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />Steve Ach, City Planner <br /> <br />Paul T. Steinman, Director of Economic <br />Development <br /> <br />January 14, 1998 <br /> <br />Economic Development Office Use of <br />Planning Intern <br /> <br />Previous Planning Intern Brady Halverson's skills proved to be a significant <br />advantage for the economic development department in responding to <br />inquiries from industrial prospects and working with area real estate <br />brokerage firms. The advantage of using the intern to aid in providing <br />responses to prospects and such firms, is that we were able to tailor the <br />information we provided to meet their specific requests. Economic <br />development staff received two comments specifically referring to the manner <br />in which our package provided custom site planning information. <br /> <br />The use of a planning intern in this capacity has proven to provide a positive <br />marketing advantage in my correspondence with various prospects. I feel the <br />use of a planning intern who can provide this service will become <br />increasingly more important in 1998 as we continue to make improvements <br />in, and focus on, our west business park development. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
