Amending the Fiscal Year 1998 Budget
A resolution is included on the August 26, 1997 City Council agenda that will set a public
hearing for September 9, 1997 to amend the Fiscal Year (FY) 1998 Budget. Traditionally we
have formally amended the current fiscal year budget in May of each year. I am recommending
a change that will formally amend the budget twice in each fiscal year. This will accomplish two
objectives: 1) the City Council will know what budget authority is being requested to be carried
over from the prior FY to the current FY and 2) this will ensure that the City complies with the
State of Iowa Department of Management's rules and regulations as they pertain to formal
budget expenditure authority. So in the future you will be seeing two formal public hearings to
amend the current budget.

MEMORANDU
Date: August 21, 1997
To: City Council
From: Jeff Davidson, Asst. Director, Department of Planning & Community Development
Re: Installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of Burlington Street and Governor Street
For the past couple of years we have been pursuing installation of a traffic signal at the
intersection of Burlington Street and Governor Street. The existing traffic control at this
intersection is somewhat confusing, and has been perceived as contributing to traffic volume on
Summit Street because of the difficulty in pulling into the intersection from a northbound
direction. Because Burlington Street is also State Highway 1 through this intersection, we have
needed to work with the Iowa Department of Transportation in order to gain permission to install
the traffic signal. This permission has been granted, and on the consent calendar at your
August 26 meeting is an item setting a public hearing to approve plans and specs for the
signalization project.
There are residents of the Longfellow Neighborhood Association who have advocated removal
of the traffic signal at the intersection of Burlington Street and Summit Street in conjunction with
installing a traffic signal at the Burlington/Governor intersection. It is believed by these
individuals that this would help reduce traffic volume on Summit Street. There are others in the
Longfellow Neighborhood Association who are equally opposed to removal of the traffic signal
at the Burlington/Summit intersection. The JCCOG Transportation Planning Division used their
arterial street traffic analysis model to estimate the impact of removal of the Burlington/Summit
traffic signal if one was installed at the Burlington/Governor intersection. The analysis showed a
significant reduction in traffic on Summit Street only between Burlington Street and Court
Street. The remainder of Summit Street between Court Street and Kirkwood Avenue had either
a very slight increase or very slight decrease in traffic volume with removal of the
Burlington/Summit traffic signal. At the present time there are no plans to remove the
Burlington/Summit traffic signal. Staff is of the opinion that the Burlington/Summit traffic signal
is necessary to insure safe turning movements from Summit Street onto Burlington Street.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Financial Assistance for Protel( Medical Product Inc.
Protek Medical Product Inc. requests that the City submit an application for a ¢50,000
forgivable loan from the State's Community Economic Betterment Account (CEBA)
program. The company requests public assistance to help with financing up-front project
start-up costs, which includes building improvements and machinery & equipment.
The Company & the Project
Protek is a start-up company formed by Rick Pruter to develop, manufacture, and distribute
peripheral devices and accessories in the ultrasound and imaging market. The new
company would locate on the soon to be vacated first floor of the NAPA building on the
corner of Southgate Avenue and Keokuk Street. The proposed building would house the
company's complete operation including contract design work, research and development
of product lines, light manufacturing (which is mainly assembling), packaging and
inventory, and other general office activities.
The proposed project consists of the following:
Building Remodeling - 10,000 square feet
New Equipment & Furnishings
Working Capital
25 New Jobs within 2 years
~ 14 production line jobs
11 supervisory, technical &
administrative positions
29 Total Jobs (25 new & 4 existing)
$34,000 investment
$201,800 investment
~434,900
· Starting average wage of ~10.40/hr
· Starting wage of $8.00/hr
Starting average wage of
$14.40/hr
· Starting average wage of 812.60/hr
Depending upon approval of the application, the target date to begin the project is October
1 with plans to have the company established and fully operating in the NAPA building by
April 1998.
Public Financial Assistance
Protek considers public financial assistance important to the early success of its business.
The CEBA application process requires local financial participation in a project in order to
make the project competitive. The local financial participation is in the form of a $15,000
no-interest loan, with repayment beginning in two years with three equal annual
installments.
Financial Assistance Guidelines
Attached you will find a copy of the recently adopted financial assistance guidelines with
statements indicating how the characteristics of the Protel( project compare with these
guidelines. Based on this comparison, staff concludes that the characteristics of the Protel(
Medical Product project, as a start-up company, match closely with the City's guidelines
and would recommend the Council adopt the resolution authorizing the submission of the
CEBA application.

DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY OF BUSINESS: (If complete description is attached, please summa-
rize here.)
Protek Medical Products Inc. is a start-up corporation formed to develop, manufacture, and distribute
medical devices aimed at diagnostic imaging professionals. Product lines include various types of surgical
drapes, needle guidance, and positioners used for various biopsy procedures, and other devices aimed
at the diagnostic imaging professional. Protek Medical Products Inc. also will provide engineering and
design services for this same market.
The company was started to fill a market niche where competition is minimal and margins are high. Rick
Pruter (CEO) has spent the last 14 years both as a design consultant and as Vice President/General
Manager with a large player in the medical instruments market. The General Manager/CFO and the
Quality Systems Regulations Manager both have related experience in this market.
DESCRIBE IN DETAIL THE PROPOSED "PROJECT": (e.g. company relocation, plant expansion,
remodeling, new product line, refinancing, etc.) (If complete description is attached, please
summarize here.)
The proposed project would consist of leasing a 10,000 sq. ft. building to house all of the company's
functions; the central function of which would be a model manufacturing facility capable of providing
sterile devices and customer service. The desired building is located at 611 Southgate Avenue in Iowa
City. Though the building requires several leasehold improvements, the building's location meets our
physical requirements and is located near many of our vendors. The location is also conveniently located
on a public transit route and near residential areas, which will help us with our hiring needs.
It is estimated within two years of the start of this project, the project will create 25 new jobs in addition
to our existing four employees. The new jobs will be a combination of 14 production line jobs and 11
supervisory, technical, and administrative positions.
Please see Business Plan, Attachment B, for further project details.

EXPLAIN WHY ASSISTANCE IS NEEDED FROM THE STATE, AND WHY IT CANNOT BE OBTAINED
ELSEWHERE. SPECIFIC SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION EVIDENCED ElY CASH FLOW STATE-
MENTS, INCOME STATEMENTS, ETC., IS REQUESTED.
During the first phase of the business' development, the selected financial institution is willing to provide
$400,000 to help finance project. Financing is required to meet upfront building improvements and
machinery & equipment needs. Please reference last page of Operating Budget in Business Plan. As
shown under "Most Likely Scenario", financing needs reach $670,675 at the end of June 1998. Firstar
will provide additional lending above the $400,000 based on collateral and other sources of funds
provided during the 1998 time period. This additional lending would be in the form of an SBA guaranteed
loan.
29.
EXPLAIN THE NEED FOR SPECIFIC TYPE OF ASSISTANCE (LOCATIONAL OR FINANCIAL OR
RATE OF RETURN). CAN CONVENTIONAL FINANCING BE OBTAINED FOR ALL PROJECT
COSTS? IF CEBA PROVIDED A MARKET RATE LOAN COULD THE PROJECT PROCEED? LOW
OR NO INTEREST LOAN? IF NOT, WHY NOT?
Controlling costs during start-up phase is very important. A forgivable loan provides the business the
necessary cash to make the project successful. As noted above, state/local assistance will provide
additional sources of funds that will enable our current lender to provide necessary funding during and
after 1st quarter 1998. A forgivable loan from the State provides funding that would be looked upon more
favorably by the current lender than would a conventional or low interest loan.

PROTEK will Design, Package, and Distribute specialized medical devices for health
care professionals' worldwide.
CORE PRODUCTS and SERVICES
PROTEK will target the Ultrasound Industry with several lines of cost affective
sterile and non-sterile products. These products are used in both the scanning and
iutraoperative surgical suites.
PROTEK will target urologists and radiologists with a radiation. seed implant device
and an ultrasound transducer positioner/holder.
PROTEK will offer a line of endocavity needle and Catheter guides for prostate
biopsies and egg retrievals.
PROTEK will offer assistance to inventors of accessories in this market to provide

PROTEK MEDICAL PRODUCTS, INC.
Executive Summary
PROTEK MEDICAL PRODUCTS INC. (PROTEK) was formed to develop,
manufacture and distribute medical devices aimed at the diagnostic imaging
professionals. This will include a line of products such as Surgical Devices,
Instruments, Sterile Instrument Drapes and Ultrasound Transducer Covers.
PROTEK has identified a market niche where consumer demand exceeds current
supplies within a growing market. PROTEK will win customer suppor~ and retain
them by providing high quality, low cost product and services superior to the
current competitors.
LONG TERM OBJECTIVE
PROTEK will build its infrastructure, product lines and customer base to position
the corporation as the leader in the ultrasound and imaging markets, offering
peripheral devices and accessories.
PROTEK will ensure the highest quality standard, with the products and services
provided to the customer. Regulatory compliance is maintained by certifying
through the FDA and meeting the Medical Directives defined in the EN46000
standard.
PROTEK will work directly with OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) in
the diagnostic imaging industry to provide a complete turnkey service for sterile and
non-sterile devices. GE Medical, ATL, Siemens, CMS, Toshiba, Hitachi, and
Acuson will be the type of OEMs targeted. There are approximately 35 OEMs in the
Ultrasound Market that will be on a continuous marketing and follow-up campaign.
PROTEK will target domestic distributors in the ultrasound market that sell
peripheral devices for ultrasound and imaging procedures. PROTEK will offer
several exclusive private label products, which PROTEK will not compete with in
the domestic retail market. Among these will be Cone Instruments, G.E. Medical,
Siemens, ATL, CMS, etc. These Distributors are currently competing with both of
their vendors for these products.
SHORT TERM OBJECTIVE
The first years' objective will be to occupy and set up a model manufacturing
facility capable of providing sterile devices and customer service to a global
marketplace. Key objectives include recruiting employees, setting up vendors,
developing specialty medical devices, and validating products through the FDA. An
ad campaign will be designed for company and product awareness.
The business will focus on instrument covers that protect against cross
contamination. These instrument covers will be produced with 3 unique features
(described in Design volume 2) and utilize pre-label/post-labei packaging techniques.
This packaging technique is specifically designed for international shipments and
private labeling. This packaging process is not currently being used by either of the
key competitors and is confidential and proprietary to PROTEK.
Custom medical device development and manufacturing will be the key service used
by PROTEK in partnering and working with the OEM's. PROTEK will offer
OEM's a complete turnkey service, from concept, through manufacturing, to the
end user. These services are vital to OEM's that require accessories to support their
customers.
PROTEK's product line will offer both disposable and reusable instruments in
sterile and non-sterile versions. PROTEK will partner with the'OEM's and help
them with complete turnkey service and global distribution of products and
accessories that compliment and sometimes stimulate OEM's system sales.
MARKETING
MARKETING OVERVIEW
Product awareness and distribution will be based on a multi level marketing plan
consisting of:
1. Domestic Retail This effort will include the United States, Canada and certain
areas of Mexico. Targeted markets include hospitals, clinics and professional health
care offices. Products offered to this market will include custom fabricated devices,
defined by doctors or technicians, and designed, built, and distributed by PROTEK.
2. Domestic Distribution Private labeled products will be offered to distributors.
There will be several products that will be offered exclusively to these distributors,
where PROTEK will not compete. Product awareness will be established through a
brochure mailing campaign and a cold call Telemarketing effort.
3. O.E.M. oartnership The O.E.M.'s will be targeted with a service card and
brochure. PROTEK's product line will be offered to the O.E.M.'s supply centers.
PROTEKS services will be offered to their sales, engineering and manufacturing
departments in the form of engineering, manufacturing, and/or distribution of
projects developed by the OEM's.
4. International Distribution The objective of this effort will be to gain leads,
seeking importers/distributors on a country by country basis. The targeted region
will be Europe. Secondary areas of interest will be Latin Americas, Africa and
Middle East. The first tier in this advertising campaign will be in Commercial News
USA. and EXPORT magazine.
The main objective of the PROTEK'S business development will be to design a clear
and precise view of the product line, including information on how to order and do
business with PROTEK. Special attention will be given to instruction of use.
The marketing department will be responsible for database management.
PROTEK'S data base will be set up by outside vendors. This method will keep costs
to a minimum.
Partnering with the customer on a friendly basis, developing an atmosphere of trust
is central to our plan.
Advertising will be one of the key elements to the awareness of PROTEK,
PROTEK's product line and services. The advertising campaign will be presented
in a clear and precise manner, using abstract flair as to provide uplift to health care
professional. Cost effectiveness to the customer will, however, take precedent over
costly packaging.
FACILITY/MANUFACTURING
Location and Facility
Several areas have been evaluated. The first option desirable is Iowa City, Iowa.
The University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics will be used as a beta site for product
clinical trials, new product and professional advice. Iowa City provides an adequate
workforce.
The second option will be the Quad City area. Benefits of this area include low cost
of housing and commercial property. This area also offers a large workforce with
many supply vendors.
The third option would be to locate near one of our large OEM's, out o~' state. This
would be desirable to the OEM, which in turn would insure business for PROTEK.
The determining factors will be cost, labor availability, and state/community
incentives, as product cost is imperative for market penetration and company
viability as it goes through the start-up phase.
PROTEK's operation requires a building ready for immediate occupancy with
minimum lease improvement. An open warehouse area will be needed for maximum
efficiency, however for this product; ceiling height is not a critical element.
Outside curb appeal and inside cleanliness will be a strong determination as
customer impression is crucial. Also the building must meet all ISO9001, FDA, CE
Marking requirements.
Warehouse/Production area needs approximately 3000-4000 sq. feet. for the first 2
years growing to 10,000 sq. ft. during year 4.
Portable clean room walls, curtains, and filters will be utilized for future expansions,
moving, and or process changes.
An overhead dock door will be required after year 2 for shipments to and from the
sterilizer.
Electrical requirements at this time are a maximum of 208.
MANUFACTURING
The manufacturing area for the first 2 years will be comprised of a class 10000 clean
room capable of producing and packaging large quantities in line form. Each line
will have 2 assembly tables, a vettrod, a continuous band sealer and misc. tooling.
As production increases and capacity reaches 90% utilization, this line will be
duplicated. The capital required for each line is approximately $25,000 and will be
capable of generating 1,000,000 in sales revenue, which represents approximately
250,000 kits processed.
Outsourcing will be thoroughly evaluated on each product and process to compare
internal costs and to minimize cost of goods (COG). Sterilization, cover
manufacturing, machining, molding and printing will be among the services that
will be outsourced.

Re: Solid or Hazardous Waste Management Plan
Protek Medical Products, Inc. (PMP) is a start-up company formed to develop,
manufacture and distribute medical devices aimed at diagnostic imaging
professionals. Since most of what we classify as manufacturing is actually
assembly, there will be virtually no solid waste produced relating to the
production of materials. The handling of waste for direct production will be the
responsibility of our vendors. PMP will not be handling products that contain, or
will be produced or packaged, using hazard materials.
The predominate source of solid waste for PMP will be office related paper and
cardboard. PMP is committed to recycle all possible materials that result from
our business activity. Waste volume will be monitored and a program will be set
up with local vendors for our cardboard to be baled and salvaged and also for the
paper to be recycled.
Our employees are committed to ensuring that our environment receives
maximum attention.

Joint Application for Financial Assistance
City of Iowa City and Community Economic Betterment Account Funding
Application for Community Economic Betterment Account (CEBA) funds requires state and
local financial involvement in an economic development project. In many instances that
form of local financial involvement includes financial incentives granted to the business
from the City of Iowa City. Just as the State has criteria to determine the eligibility of a
project, the City has guidelines we use to evaluate the appropriateness of public
investment in a project (see attached). Below are a number of questions for you to answer
that will help us in our evaluation. You may provide the information in the format of your
choice.
1. What will be the average hourly wage for all new and existing jobs (including hourly and
salaried positions) at the Iowa City facility? (Complements CEBA question number 18)
Positions Average Hourly Wage
Existing t~26.63
New t~10.45
Total t~ 12.68
Please provide a list of positions and hourly rates for each job classification that is
existing and to be created. (Complements CEBA question number 18)
Please see Attachment A
Beyond the present project, what future growth potential is there for the Iowa City
operation?
In 5 to 7 years, we are forecasting sales in the range of $10 million by capturing
existing market sales, capturing additional sales due to market growth, and through
new product development. With this growth in sales we anticipate employing between
50 and 70 employees.
Please describe the types of worker safety programs that would be available for your
employees.
We will comply with IS09001 medical manufacturer requirements as well as all OSHA
requirements.
Please document how much of your raw materials, supportive services, machinery and
equipment, and labor will come from the eastern Iowa area.
As stated in the CEBA question, 85% of the company's total operating expenditures
(including wages and salaries) will be spent within the State of Iowa. Nearly all of
these expenditures will take place in eastern Iowa.
Please describe the energy and resource efficiency programs and waste reduction,
waste exchange, and recycling programs at your Iowa City operation. (Complements
CEBA question number 39)
In order to maintain a control on costs, the company will regularly evaluate the
efficiency of its use of energy and the resources used to make our products. Please
see CEBA question number 39 regarding our plan to handle solid waste.
7, Do you use recycled materials in the production of any products or through the
provision of any services at your facility? If so, please describe.
No - Currently the materials that will be in our drapes and guidance systems cannot be
recycled materials due to quality control reasons. The company will continue to pursue
options that would include recycled materials.
8. Will the Iowa City operation develop renewable energy resources or products that
conserve energy? If so, please describe.
No. Our business does not involve the development of renewable energy resources or
products that conserve energy.
9. Please describe your business' history of contributing tO the community through
volunteer work, financial contributions, or other means.
Rick L. Pruter has been involved in Rotary, coaching of Little League, and acting as a
Cub Scouts leader. Protek will encourage employee participation in community affairs.
The company will also provide cooperative education opportunities. Once the company
has established itself, we look forward to contributing financially to community
projects.
10.As with the CEBA agreement, financial assistance from the City of Iowa City requires a
repayment clause in the loan agreement with the City. The repayment clause requires a
prorated repayment of the financial assistance if the company does not meet its job
attainment obligation, Is the company willing to enter into a loan agreement that
contains a repayment clause?
Yes, the company is willing to enter into a loan agreement that contains a repayment
clause.

Willow Creek Trail - Recommendation Not to Award
As you are aware, only one bid was received for this project which was 22% higher than the
estimate (bid: $257,400- estimate: $211,000- difference: $46,400).
Staff recommends that we do not award a contract, but rather re-bid the project this Winter for
the following reason:
Only one bid was received and even after reexamining our estimate, the bid still
appeared too high to recommend award.
We can reexamine and clarify some of the bid items, continue to negotiate the Aspen Lake
easement, and re-bid the project this Winter with a Spring start date. A December letting may
attract more bidders.

MEMORANDUM
August 14, 1997
To: Steve Arkins
From: Chuck Schmadeke
Re:
Construction management and inspection of water and wastewater facility
projects.
If you will recall, Tim Randall was appointed Special Projects Manager about eighteen
months ago for the purpose of managing the South River Corridor Sewer Project and
the Napoleon Park Pump Station Project. These two projects are scheduled for
completion by December, 1997. In addition to Tim Randall, two project inspectors,
Shaun Bradbury and Bruce Hayes are providing on-site inspection.
Utilizing City staff personnel to manage these projects has resulted in excellent
construction work by the contractor, the use of materials that meet or exceed
specifications and a minimum of extra work orders. Also the total cost of project
management utilizing City staff is less than one-half the cost of utilizing engineering
consultants.
Since this "in-house" project management experience has been so successful, I am
convinced the City would benefit equally from utilizing Mr. Randali's construction
management team on the several upcoming wastewater facility and water facility
projects.
These projects include the Scott Blvd. Trunk Sewer Project (award August, 1998), the
Willow Creek Interceptor Sewer Project (award January, 1998), all future water facility
projects (awards beginning in late fall of 1997) and the South Wastewater plant
improvements (award January, 2000). In addition, the East-West Arterial (award
January, 1998) can be added to this list.
However, in order to assume the construction management services required for these
additional projects, two additional project inspectors will be required at an annual cost of
+/- $92,000.
Public Works recommends hiring the additional inspectors. The inspectors' positions will
be consistent with that of the two inspectors currently under Tim Randali's supervision.
The total cost of the above listed "special projects" is estimated at $75,000,000. Total
construction management cost utilizing "in house" staff will be approximately 4.2% of
construction cost. This compares very favorably with the cost of utilizing consultants.
Consultant costs average 10% of construction cost.
