FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MOTOKAZIELAND 12/30/2013
Over the last four years Motokazie has invested thousands of hours and about $500,000 dollars in the development of Motokazieland in Rice County, Minnesota. The long, expensive and difficult battle with the County administration, the several lawsuits, changing locations and the arduous process took its toll on Motokazie. Having lived through this I can tell you that it is a disgusting process that grinds away on your emotional and physical health & personality.
Motokazie is not comfortable developing on the terms set forth by Rice County, specifically the Developers Agreement and allowable CUP uses. Obstacles have created a barrier to entry too high for my business to overcome.
Because of these and other considerations we will not be moving forward with the Motokazieland development at this time.
Motokazie and its staff and employees wish to thank all of our supporters, for their tremendous involvement in the development of Motokazieland. It was our dream and your enthusiasm that kept us going throughout this difficult process. So many people have donated time, attended meetings and contacted elected officials. I am sorry to disappoint my supporters. This is a heavy weight on my shoulders. To walk away at this point is devastating. Motokazie wanted nothing but to have a prosperous business that drove economic growth in and around Rice County.
Thank you-
Lee Theis
President
Motokazie, Inc.
