Dear Commissioner Varilek:
On behalf of the Destination Medical Center Corporation (“DMCC”) and Mayo Clinic, and
pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 469.47, subdivision 2, I am pleased to forward the
following 2024 certification of expenditures. These expenditures are the investments that have
been made by Mayo Clinic and by other private individuals or entities to advance the Destination
Medical Center initiative.
1. DMCC Certification: I enclose the DMCC Certification of Expenditures made by
an individual or entity, other than Mayo Clinic, for the period ending on December 31,
2024 (“Attachment 1”). The City of Rochester, Minnesota assisted with the compilation of
this report. The amount of 2024 investments set forth in this report is $9,280,985.
2. Mayo Clinic Certification: I enclose correspondence and accompanying materials
from Natalie Caine, Chief Administrative Officer, Mayo Clinic in Rochester, dated March
18, 2025 (“Attachment 2”). Mayo Clinic is certifying expenditures for the period of January
1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 in the amount of $$176,220,326.
3. Summary of Investments: The summary page, entitled “Certification of
Expenditures, Destination Medical Center” is enclosed, setting forth total cumulative
expenditures through December 31, 2024, in the amount of $$1,792,869,637.
I would like to highlight that Mayo Clinic’s 2024 investment represents it largest-ever
annual investment in destination medical care, education, and research. It is also noteworthy that
these private investments, from Mayo Clinic and others, occurred in a challenging environment as
to interest rates, construction labor constraints, and inflation, demonstrating the success of this
public-private partnership even in the face of these economic headwinds.

Looking ahead, the DMCC is confident that the Destination Medical Center (“DMC”)
economic development and partnership model will continue to produce the benefits promised to
the State of Minnesota and Rochester residents, employees, patients, and visitors when the DMC
was launched nearly a decade ago: new jobs, increased investment and development, and a high-
quality community experience. Currently, the City of Rochester and the DMC Economic
Development Agency are in active discussions with 14 different developers interested in investing
in downtown Rochester. The projects under discussion include nearly 900 affordable housing
units, 1,200 market-rate housing units, and 200 hotel rooms. Also, in October 2024, the Minnesota
Department of Employment and Economic Development (“DEED”) reported that the Rochester
Metropolitan Statistical Area leads the state in job growth, adding about 7,000 jobs for a year-
over-year growth rate of 6.3%. Together, these positive indicators signal that Rochester and the
surrounding area will continue to lead Minnesota in economic development. Thank you for your
consideration, and please do not hesitate to contact either the DMCC or Mayo Clinic if you need
further information. We look forward to continuing to work with the State of Minnesota, City of
Rochester, Olmsted County, Mayo Clinic, and our other partners on the DMC initiative.
Sincerely,
Pamela Wheelock

Dear Commissioner Varilek:
Enclosed is Mayo Clinic's certification of qualified expenditures of the Medical Business Entity for the
Destination Medical Center (DMC) initiative from Jan. 1, 2024, to Dec. 31, 2024. The amount of
qualified investment is approximately $176.2 million. This represents an over 30% increase from 2023.
In November 2023, Mayo Clinic announced Bold. Forward. Unbound. in Rochester to advance our
overall Bold. Forward. strategy to Cure, Connect and Transform healthcare for the benefit of patients
everywhere. Bold. Forward. Unbound. in Rochester is a $5 billion investment over six years, the largest
in Mayo Clinic's history. In 2024, work began in earnest with the start of major utility and infrastructure
work, including expansion of the Prospect Utility Plant, a facility critical to meeting future energy needs
with sustainability at its core. In addition to progress on Bold. Forward. Unbound. in Rochester, we also
celebrated the "topping-off" of the Andersen Building to meet the increasing demand of patients seeking
advanced cancer treatment.
Mayo Clinic continues to make significant investments in our staff. In 2024, we welcomed 13,000 new
staff to Mayo Clinic and provided salaries and benefits totaling $10.5 billion. Together, our Mayo Clinic
teams cared for patients from every state and 135 countries.
The scale of investment and opportunity in Rochester is unlike anywhere else in the state. We are
confident that our investments in the transformation of healthcare and our staff demonstrate Mayo
Clinic's deep commitment to our patients, staff and communities. We look forward to maintaining our
ongoing DMC partnership with the city of Rochester, Olmsted County and the state of Minnesota.
Sincerely,
Natalie Caine
