Tom Drake, City Engineer City of Watertown 23 2nd Street NE Watertown, SD 57201

Dear Tom:

Thank you for an opportunity to submit a proposal to conduct a housing study for the City of Watertown. We feel our firm can provide you with an excellent product based on the following:

< Founded in 1995, Community Partners Research has completed hundreds of housing studies for Cities and Counties in South Dakota, Minnesota, North Dakota, Iowa and Wisconsin. Our studies have been utilized and accepted by a broad range of government and financial entities, including the State Housing Agencies from the States listed above.

< The housing needs study will be a practical, usable document that will benefit both the public and private sector. The study will help the City of Watertown make informed policy decisions on housing related issues, and assist in providing direction for future action.

< The study will identify rental housing development needs, examine single family housing issues including lot development needs, identify rehab and preservation of existing housing, provide a good inventory of what housing currently exists, and will address any unique housing situations that may exist in the City.

< During our research, we will be visible and present in the City. On-site field work will be important to producing an accurate and well- accepted product. We will conduct interviews with community leaders, bankers, realtors, elected officials, rental property owners, developers, etc. December 11, 2013 page 2

< The study will be an objective, independent third party analysis of the local housing situation.

< The study will be customized to address the specific housing issues identified in the City of Watertown.

Again, thank you for this opportunity to submit a proposal. If you have any questions, please contact me at (507) 838-5992.

Project Personnel

Steven Griesert and Scott Knudson will be the individuals conducting all of the work on this project including all data collection, data analysis, interviews, etc. Steven Griesert and Scott Knudson have a combined 60 years of experience in housing and have conducted over 250 housing studies over the past 19 years. Steven Griesert and Scott Knudson are two of the few individuals in the housing study and research industry who have been housing practitioners and still are practitioners. Our firm does not only conduct housing studies. We also assist communities with housing and community development projects and programs. We consider this background a strength.

Our experience and expertise can probably be best described by the fact that when East Grand Forks experienced a devastating flood and was faced with a major rebuilding effort including acquisitions, demolitions, new rental housing, new single family homes, commercial development, etc.; the Minnesota Disasters Task Force first contacted Steven Griesert and Scott Knudson to assist with the rebuilding process.

Our abbreviated resumes are on the following page.
