July 18, 2006 City of Elk River, City Council Madam Mayor, Council members Matter at hand• • LeFebvre Companies Inc. and LeFebvre Properties LLP respectfully present the following matters for your consideration: Need: A temporary office trailer parked adjacent and parallel to the western wall of our existing office building on 171St Ave. NW. This trailer will be 12 ft by 44 ft. and fit perfectly in the lawn area between the existing building and the curb, as seen in the architect's sketch. This trailer is new, and will be fitted with skirting around the bottom. A few small shrubs will be planted on the sides facing the streets. This office trailer contains one fully private office, plus space for two to three work space cubes. Duration• • We are seeking a 36 month term of this temporary permit to give adequate time to fully evaluate our future needs for staffing and permanent space. Summary of motivating factors: • A substantial increase in gross sales • A dramatic increase in the number of outlying, in state and out of state satellite locations. • An increase of almost 180% in our Elk River home office support staff. (since 1997 when we moved into our present offices) • The hiring of our first full time Human Resources director. • The need for privacy for that HR person to perform their duties. • Time to fully evaluate our future needs for office space and staffing. The present over-crowded condition of our office is not conducive to good employee morale or efficient production. It is particularly important, as you business people know, to provide very private space for the Human Resources department. Thank you for your consideration of our rather critical request and your prompt handling of the matter. Sincerely, Bob Strong, Mgr. Real Estate LeFebvre Companies, Inc.
