To Whom It May Concern:
This is an update to the letter&om Midwest Industries, Inc. dated Feb. 27, 1997, relative to the
planned addition to our facilities at 2320 North Seventh Avenue. These plans include the
expansion of the manufacturing plant and the retail store.
When completed we anticipate the addition often people to our crew. The pay scale will be in
the range of $702 to $1 ()I!!I an hour for about three people and $10!!!l to $14!!!l an hour for about
seven people.
Obviously the financial aspects of this undertaking are daunting, (revised construction cost:
$512,OOO~. We feel however, that with the addition to our crew plus the added facilities, we will
be better able to serve the needs of the community while providing for the employment of ten
more people.
The tax incentives offered would be of great value and very much appreciated.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
~~
