Attention: Mr. Robert Richards, Chainnan
De ar }l4'. Ri chards :
I expect to be out of state during the July meeting of the City of Edgewater
Industrial Board lketing.
The Kick-off Breakfast of the Southeast Volusia Economic Development Task
Force on Wednesday April 27th at the New Smyrna Beach Yacht Club resulted in
active interest and activity toward a future industrial park in the City of
Edgewater.
I met with Mayor Baugh on }I~ 10th to discuss the zoning classification
on land held by the F.E.C.R. As you have read in various news articles
the Railroad is interested in developing an industrial park in Edgewater
pending the availability of water to that park. I also learned we have an
employer who is interested in interfacing with the F.E.C.R. if the problem
of water to the land c~~ be resolved.
At Mayor Baugh's suggestion I met ~~th Terry Wadsworth and learned there is
monies designated for water to the area in question for the purpose of fire
protection. The employer interested in interfacing with the F.E.C.R. stated
he pl~~s to apply to the city for an extension of the waterlines to his
proposed industrial property. I vdll keep in touch with him and keep you
informed of future developments.
Plans for Industry Week in September are underway. Speakers for the seminar
have been contacted. Follow-up letters of confirmation will be sent to each
one of them by the Chamber of Commerce in August.
WACO MANUFACTURING, INC. and BOSTON WHALER, INC. Nomination forms have been
mailed to the Department of Commerce in Tallahassee for possible Florida
Industry Appreciation Awards. (Only two nominations from each city were
allowed. )

Subject: Report on contacts - West Germany
Dear David:
I ....'as successful in contacting one of the two names you
provided during my two weeks in West Germany. Mr. Helmut
Rothenberger, owner of Rothenberger Werkzeuge and Maschinen
(Rothenberger Hand Tools and Machinery) Inc. was available
for a telephone conversation. The conversation led me to
believe he is interested in setting up a distribution center
somewhere in the Eastern United States. He has one in Los
Angeles that employs approximately 70 people. His factory
in Kelkheim employs approximately 3,000 people. His interest
in the Eastern United States for a distribution center would
probably employ approximately 20 to 30 people, according to
him. He did not go into a lot of detail about future
expansion or manufacturing in the United States.
All in all, the conversation was cordial and very business-
like. Mr. Rothenberger strongly encouraged additional
information or material be sent to him regarding volusia
County. Needless to say, I put a specific plug in for the
City of Edgewater.
For your information, he was very non-committal and indicated
he is looking at the North and South Carolina areas. He did
not go into detail regarding the types of hand tools he
manufactures (i.e., industrial pneumatic type tools or
commercial or retail type hand tools).

As for the contact in Berlin, I was there for two days and
was not able to use a telephone" where I was located. This
may sound bizarre, however, in addition to the schedule I
was on, it was impossible under my circumstances to place a
call while there. However, I attempted to contact Mr. Horst
Wigmann long distance from Heidelberg and the two occasions
I was able to get through to his office he was not in.
However, I did leave a message with his secretary as to who
I was and why I was calling. She appeared to have a reasonably
good working knowledge of English so I would trust the
message got through without any meaning lost in interpretation.
If I can assist ~n any other way in the future, please do not
hesitate to let me know.
Sincerely,
