NARRATIVE
(Noun; a spoken or written account of connected events; a story.)
The average citizen harbors a strong mistrust towards government officials and employees. Because of this mistrust, there are ethics and values in place to provide much needed accountability between the general public and the local, state and federal administration. This solidifies the well-known fact that Public Administrators are held at a much higher standard, or at least; should be, with regard to ethics than your everyday citizen. Why is ethics in Public Service important? Why is it necessary? Why is it an invaluable tool? Ethics in Public Service is a crucial part of the day-to-day activities that Public Administrators enact.
There is absolutely no room for anything other than operating with full transparency.
Ethics embodies honesty, accountability, integrity, empathy and just knowing the difference between what is right and what is wrong. This includes operating strictly as a policy-driven individual. Merriam Webster Dictionary defines ethics as the discipline dealing with what is good and what is bad. Many corporations, organizations and especially government entities create strong mission statements to establish strict company values and ethics. These values and ethics set the tone, framework and character for the organizations and its employees. Granted, much of the ethical rhetoric has fallen by the way side, with many public officials being plastered with controversy in the media. The public demands answers and justice from all Public Servants who are involved with such controversy.
Some may get ethics and morals misconstrued. Although similar, there is a difference between these two entities. Morals, generally describe one’s personal beliefs and values as to what is right and wrong, whereas ethics refers to a wide range of moral principles solely based on a gray area of questionable activity. So, what is moral compass, and how does it fit into Public Service? A moral compasses is a tool to help navigate personal issues which affect any individual. These personal issues can include anything regarding finances; failure to pay income taxes, questionable purchases and money laundering. Moral compasses also deal with issues of health; drug use, alcohol abuse, obesity and unhealthy lifestyles.
There is much to consider when Public Servants are in uncompromising situations involving embezzling, misappropriation of funds, theft of property and so forth. Thomas Jefferson once famously noted, “When a man assumes a public trust, he should consider himself public property.” This statement could not be truer today, and surely ethically correct. Public Servants are operating 'public property'. They should be working in a transparent manner, with morals, integrity, honesty and putting the public’s trust above all things. This is what Jefferson meant when he proclaimed, “The basic obligation of Public Service.” Once lost, is it possible to gain the public’s trust back? Except in very rare and unusual circumstances, regaining public trust is, at best, doubtful. So it is in the City of Hamburg, Minnesota; Population 500 (+ or-).
In my view, it all started in 2014 because of the deleterious actions of a single individual, their CITY CLERK/TREASURER, JEREMY GRUENHAGEN. And, that's when all of the other Hamburg PUBLIC OFFICIALS; much to the detriment of the City and its residents, 'jumped on the band wagon' like rats following the Pied Piper; (a person who entices others to follow him), and everything began to 'go downhill'. There's also no question whatsoever in my mind that it was Hamburg's 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY, KELLY C. DOHM of the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, who was 'cheering everybody on' and was 'instrumental' in ALSO intentionally involving former CARVER COUNTY SHERIFF JAMES OLSON and current CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, in her 'zeal', combined with the determination of the other Hamburg PUBLIC OFFICIALS, trying desperately, and unsuccessfully, to force me off the Hamburg City Council before my four year term expired.
Instead of 'forcing me out', it ended up being "DO NOT PASS GO; BUT COLLECT $50,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS FOR YOUR LAW FIRM" !!
Being a former Hamburg City Council Member (2013-2016), I was keenly aware of the unbelievable manner that Hamburg City Officials literally wasted taxpayer dollars. That reason, alone, was one (of many) 'deciding factors' in my filing for election to the Hamburg City Council in August of 2012. But there also were many other factors that solidified my decision to enter 'City Government': Make the community better, help those less fortunate, improve the 'quality of life' of residents, etc., etc., etc.
In November 2012, I was elected to a four year term and, believe me; those four years were certainly an 'eye opening' experience; to say the least. It didn't take me long to realize that if you are a member of the Hamburg City Council and choose NOT to be a 'member'' of the "GOOD OLD BOYS CLUB"', you'll certainly find out, in short order, what local, small town 'politics' is all about. (Round Peg; Square Hole.)
And how 'ugly and nasty' it can be.
I 'did my time' on the Hamburg City Council and had pretty much 'turned the page' on what was one of the most disappointing (and 'eye opening') experiences in all of my seventy-seven years on God's 'Good Earth'. I had NEVER, in all of my life, met such viscous, and in some cases, downright IGNORANT, self-centered people of such questionable character !! And they ALL were receiving MY (and other taxpayer's) dollars !! What I observed take place, and knowing that I had 'zero chance' of improving what was taking place, I simply 'disassociated' myself from people of so little character that I was 'forced' to be around; for those four years. I basically 'ignored' the City of Hamburg for about the next couple of years after my term expired. But that changed a little over a year ago; 'history' (in Hamburg) was about to 'repeat itself'.
In the fall of 2019, I received a City 'flyer' mailed out to all City residents containing various pieces of news and tidbits of general information. One particular 'tidbit of information had to do with the upcoming City budget for 2020; one of my 'favorite' categories. Among other topics that caught my attention was, "In regards to lawyer fees, that one is going to depend on the pending litigation with property owned in the heart of Hamburg. We are working diligently with the city attorney to get within the ballpark of potential legal fees."
I found that statement interesting for two reasons: First, the 'city attorney' (who was provided 'by contract' from the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT and SJODIN), walked away with (about) $50,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS in legal fees when the rest of the City Council was (first 'covertly; then 'overtly') vigorously (and viciously) trying to (unsuccessfully) 'oust' me off the City Council during the last 2.5 years of my term. Wasn't gonna happen !!
Secondly, that same Waconia based law firm, MELCHERT, HUBERT and SJODIN, was, once again, 'supplying' the 'contract attorney' to 'represent' the City of Hamburg in the 'pending litigation' referenced in the Fall 2019 'City Flyer' and regarding (land) property OWNED BY A HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBER !!
Finding out about the 'pending lawsuit' involving a current Hamburg City Council Member, piqued my interest. I had previously heard 'rumblings' about some type of 'disagreement' between the City and the City Council Member about property he owned in the City, but I thought that 'issue' had been resolved'. Apparently it wasn't.
On October 15, 2019, as a concerned and taxpaying resident, I send an (innocent) e-mail to City of Hamburg seeking information about the 'pending lawsuit' against the City of Hamburg and asked if the City had been formally 'served' with a civil lawsuit and requested a copy of the lawsuit if, in fact, the City had been served.
Later that same day of my request, I received an Official City E-mail from Gruenhagen stating, "Since the City is involved in a pending litigation I will need to confer with our ('by contract' from the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT and SJODIN) attorney. Once I hear back from them, I will provide you with the information that is available to the public."
Now, by his actions and words, Gruenhagen has now involved the 'contract City Attorney'; an attorney supplied by the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT and SJODIN in what is about to 'play out' over the next several months.
Six days later, on October 21, 2019 HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER sent me an Official City E-mail stating, "Since the pleadings have been filed, you can get them from the Carver County Court Administrator". Gruenhagen's e-mail continues, "The City has been served with pleadings, and this matter is ongoing."
But, in fact, and according to the Carver County District Court, the 'pleadings' had NOT been 'filed', and GRUENHAGEN KNEW THAT !!
The DECEIT, DECEPTION, DISHONESTY, COVER-UP' and WITHOLDING PUBLIC INFORMATION, from taxpayers by HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, begins. What took place is VERY CLEAR: GRUENHAGEN LIED, he GOT 'CAUGHT' and then the OTHER CITY OFFICIALS, who knew, or should have known, what was taking place; FAILED TO TAKE ANY ACTION; THEY, too, all GOT 'CAUGHT' !! Doesn't that make the ENTIRE CITY COUNCIL 'ACCOMPLICES' ??
LYING, DECEIT, DECEPTION and DISHONESTY BY PUBLIC OFFICIALS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE !! CITIZENS SHOULD NOT BE EXPECTED TO, and WILL NOT ACCEPT, PUBLIC OFFICIALS WHO ARE DISHONEST. PERIOD !!
Gruenhagen's INTENTIONAL, FABRICATED, FALSE and DECEPTIVE statement was later INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED by the CARVER COUNTY DISTRICT COURT, NUMEROUS TIMES, to be a UNTRUE and FALSE STATEMENT. Gruenhagen would later IMPEACH HIS OWN CHARACTER, HONESTY AND CREDIBILITY by later INDICATING PUBLICLY that he KNEW that the civil lawsuit against the city of Hamburg had NOT been 'filed' with the (Carver County District) Court Administrator'; as he had FALSELY and FRAUDULENTLY stated in his October 21, 2019 e-mail.
As evidenced by documents and other information already submitted,
HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, a PUBLIC OFFICER of the CITY OF HAMBURG
is accused of violating
MINNESOTA STATUE 609.43 - MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE
by committing the following offenses:
(Count 1) KNOWINGLY, and INTENTIONALLY, FABRICATED an OFFICIAL CITY DOCUMENT, which
(Count 2) KNOWINGLY and INTENTIONALLY contained FALSE, FABRICATED, and FRAUDULENT information that he KNEW TO BE FALSE and FABRICATED, and
(Count 3) PREVENTING and REFUSING a taxpaying City resident, from RECEIVING PUBLIC INFORMATION; Public Information to which taxpaying City residents are
ENTITLED TO RECEIVE, and
(Count 4) When questioned regarding the existence of the requested information, INTENTIONALLY and with MALACE LIED to a taxpaying City resident who is entitled to
know the information that was requested from the City of Hamburg, the status and whereabouts of the information requested; thereby violating the Hamburg City
Clerk/Treasurer's Oath of Office.
As this Webpage is CONTINUALLY BEING UPDATED, PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER for additional information and details about WHAT ELSE TOOK PLACE as the result of the actions of the PUBLIC OFFICERS of the City of Hamburg. You'll learn and much more information and details about HOW the REFUSAL of CARVER COUNTY
ATTORNEY MARK METZ, and other PUBLIC OFFICIALS to fully employ the 'system' designed to PROTECT THE PUBLIC, DETECT, BRING TO JUSTICE
AND HOLD ACCOUNTABLE, those LAWYERS and other PUBLIC OFFICERS who violate the law (and the PUBLIC TRUST), FAILED MISERABLY !!
The HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, A PUBLIC OFFICER, INTENTIONALLY VIOLATED A PROVISION IN THE "MINNESOTA ** CRIMINAL ** CODE OF CONDUCT" (MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 - MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE) Because Of His Behavior.
The HAMBURG MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL, also PUBLIC OFFICERS, REFUSED to take any action !!
I forwarded to, and asked for, CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ to investigate the IREFFUTABLE & OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE submitted to him about what was taking place in the CITY OF HAMBURG involving its PUBLIC OFFICERS, INCLUDING the HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER and 'contract' CITY ATTORNEY.
CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY METZ REFUSED to take any action; presumably because of the IDENTITY, STATUS and POSITION of those individuals involved, accused, would be revealed.
Unless I Don't Know How To Comprehend The Written Word, Page 5 Of The Minnesota Grand Jury Guide, Section I-A REQUIRES COUNTY ATTORNEY METZ To Present Evidence To A Grand Jury Involving "...THE WILLFUL and CORRUPT MISCONDUCT of ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS HOLDING OFFICE IN THE COUNTY."
So, we have PROFESSIONAL MISCONDUCT taking place not only in the CITY OF HAMBURG, but now, also by CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ (and let's not forget DEPUTY CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER IVY) for REFUSING TO IMPARTALLY DO THEIR JOB, as REQUIRED by MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61, BECAUSE of the OTHER PUBLIC OFFICIALS INVOLVED !! WHY do we even have laws if they're NOT going to be ENFORCED FAIRLY and EQUALLY ?? Enforcement and prosecution MUST NOT be based on the identity, status and 'position' of those individuals involved and accused !! ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER will tell you that !!
Not since the likes of former SCOTT COUNTY ATTORNEY KATHLEEN MORRIS and former CARVER COUNTY CHIEF DEPUTY SHERIFF JAMES CASTLEBERRY, has Carver County seen this degree and level of MALFEASANCE, NONFEASANCE and MISFEASANCE by PUBLIC OFFICIALS !!
Also, many of the residents of Carver County are UNAWARE that CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ is partially responsible for us having to PAY OUT $450,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS to the parents of a 16-year-old
fatally shot by deputies in July 2018, to settle a suit they filed against CARVER COUNTY OFFICIALS for releasing private records about their son. (For more information about that, PLEASE CLICK HERE.) And, NO 'SANCTIONS' ??
Information regarding MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER was forwarded to MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON asking him to direct the MINNESOTA BUREAU OF CRIMINAL APPREHENSION to investigate not only what has taken place in the CITY OF HAMBURG by its CITY CLERK/TREASURER but also, now, to INVESTIGATE WHAT'S TAKEN PLACE WITHIN THE CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.
MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL ELLISON, to no one's surprise or amazement, REFUSED TO TAKE ANY ACTION; again, presumably because of the IDENTITY, STATUS and POSITION of those individuals involved and accused. (When requested, BCA special agents investigate cases where a conflict of interest may exist for the local law enforcement agency.) The Minnesota 'STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS' for CRIMINAL CHARGES EXPIRES OCTOBER 22, 2022; and, of course; THEY ALL KNOW THAT !!
The information about what was taking place in the CITY OF HAMBURG and now ALSO INVOLVES THE CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE was also FORWARDED to the MINNESOTA LAWYERS PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY BOARD/OFFICE OF LAWYERS PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY; the state agency that is supposed to 'protect' citizens from the UNSCRUPULOUS, PREJUDICIAL AND DISHONEST LAWYERS that we've all heard and read about. PLEASE CLICK HERE TO SEE THE LETTERS BETWEEN US. YOU'LL BE SHOCKED !!
SYNOPSYS
(Noun; a brief summary or general survey of something.)
Based on just these three pieces of IRRUFUTABLE EVIDENCE shown above, coupled with AT LEAST THREE MORE CONTACTS WITH THE CARVER COUNTY DISTRICT COURT advising me that NO FILINGS, of any kind, EXISTED each additional time that I checked, it is CLEARLY EVIDENT that HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN WILLFULLY, WANTONLY and VOLUNTARILY, COMMITTED NUMEROUS, INTENTIONAL VIOLATIONS of the MINNESOTA CRIMINAL CODE; CHAPTER 609, specifically; MINNSOTA STATUTE 609.43 - MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICIAL OR EMPLOYEE. (Please see the cited MINNESOTA STATUTE in the right margin of this Webpage.)
At all times material herein, the other City Officials of the City of Hamburg, knew, or should have known, about the commission of CRIMINAL ACTS by the Hamburg City/Clerk/Treasurer, yet; they TOOK NO ACTION.
Instead of holding the City of Hamburg City Clerk/Treasurer for his CRIMINAL ACTS, the Hamburg Mayor and Hamburg City Council Members voted to 'award' their City Clerk/Treasurer Jeremy Gruenhagen for his actions by APPROVING a SALARY INCREASE of 4% for the upcoming 2020 calendar year, and imposed NO SANCTIONS of Gruenhagen for his intentional, CRIMINAL ACTIONS !!
Because the Hamburg Mayor, Christopher Lund and City Council Members Buckentin, Tracy, Poppler and Feltmann REFUSED TO ACT APPROPRIATELY when learning the Hamburg City Clerk/Treasurer had INTENTIONALLY VIOLATED THE LAW, I contacted Carver County Attorney, Mark Metz, the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of Carver County.
The 'record' CLEARLY SHOWS that much of what has taken place is because CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ 'shirked' his STATUATORY DUTY and OBLIGATION and, much to the dismay, disgust, and expense to, Carver County residents, he also OBSTRUCTED the ADMINISTRATION of JUSTICE by REFUSING TO RESPOND APPROPRIATELY, IMPARTIALLY and RESPONSIBLY, as REQUIRED BY MINNESOTA STATE LAW, because of the IDENTITY, STATUS and POSITION of those individuals, who are PUBLIC OFFICERS and are PAID WITH TAXPAYER DOLLARS, are involved in, and accused of, WRONGDOING !!
As this Webpage is CONTINUALLY BEING UPDATED, PLEASE CHECK BACK PERIODICALLY for additional information and details about WHAT ELSE TOOK PLACE as the result of the actions of the PUBLIC OFFICERS of the City of Hamburg. You'll learn and much more information and details about HOW the REFUSAL of CARVER COUNTY
ATTORNEY MARK METZ, and other PUBLIC OFFICIALS to fully employ the 'system' designed to PROTECT THE PUBLIC, DETECT, BRING TO JUSTICE
AND HOLD ACCOUNTABLE, those LAWYERS and other PUBLIC OFFICERS who violate the law (and the Public Trust), FAILED MISERABLY !!
Ironically, several weeks AFTER HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN AUTHORED and TENDERED his October 21, 2019 e-mail message (an OFFICIAL CITY OF HAMBURG DOCUMENT) containing FALSE, FRAUDULENT, FABRICATED and MISLEADING INFORMATION, he would readily, voluntarily and PUBLICLY STATE and INDICATE that he was fully aware that the civil lawsuit against the City of Hamburg had, indeed NOT BEEN FILED as he wrongfully and INTENTIONALLY LIED ABOUT, as stated in his October 21, 2019 OFFICIAL CITY OF HAMBURG e-mail; thereby INTENTIONALLY, WANTONLY, VOLUNTARILY and WILLFULLY, VIOLATING MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 - MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE.
MINNESOTA 2020 STATUTES
609.43 MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC
OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE
A public officer or employee who does any of the following, for which no other sentence is specifically provided by law, may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than one year or to payment of a fine of not more than $3,000, or both:
(1) intentionally fails or refuses to perform a known mandatory, nondiscretionary, ministerial duty of the office or employment within the time or in the manner required by law; or
(2) in the capacity of such officer or employee, does an act knowing it is in excess of lawful authority or knowing it is forbidden by law to be done in that capacity; or
(3) under pretense or color of official authority intentionally and unlawfully injures another in the other's person, property, or rights; or
(4) in the capacity of such officer or employee, makes a return, certificate, official report, or other like document having knowledge it is false in any material respect.
CONCLUSION
(Noun; a judgment or decision reached by reasoning.)
Evidence displayed above, in addition to other CORROBORATING EVIDENCE and INFORMATION previously submitted, proves UNEQUIVOCALLY and BEYOND ANY REASONABLE DOUBT, that JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, a PUBLIC OFFICER and performing in his capacity as HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, INTENTIONALLY and with MALACE, acted in a DISHONEST, DECEPTIVE and UNTRUTHFUL manner and by his words, misdeeds and actions, and thereby is alleged to have committed the GROSS MISDEMEANOR CRIME of MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER in VIOLATION of MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43.
Secondly, JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, a PUBLIC OFFICER and performing in his capacity as HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, INTENTIONALLY and with MALACE, is alleged to have committed the act of MALFEASANCE by WILLFULLY and INTENTIONALLY committing UNLAWFUL or WRONGFUL acts in the performance of a PUBLIC OFFICIAL's duties which are outside the scope of the authority of the PUBLIC OFFICIAL and which infringes on the rights of any person or entity, in VIOLATION of MINNESOTA STATUTE 351.14 Subdivision 2.
Thirdly, JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, a PUBLIC OFFICER and performing in his capacity as HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, INTENTIONALLY and with MALACE, is alleged to have committed the act of NONFEASANCE by WILLFULLY and INTENTIONALLY failing to perform a specific act which is a required part of the duties a PUBLIC OFFICIAL, in VIOLATION of MINNESOTA STATUTE 351.14 Subdivision 3.
Fourthly, JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, a PUBLIC OFFICER and performing in his capacity as HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, INTENTIONALLY and with MALACE, is alleged to have committed the act of MISFEASANCE by WILLFULLY and INTENTIONALLY negligently performing, or negligently failing to perform, a specific act which is a required part of the duties of a PUBLIC OFFICER, in VIOLATION of MINNESOTA STATUTE 351.14 Subdivision 4.
Paying Tens Of Thousands Of PRIVATE TAXPAYER DOLLARS Annually To UNSCRUPULOUS, MANIPULATIVE and UNTRUSTWORTHY PUBLIC OFFICIALS With LITTLE or NO
INTEGRITY Who Are Capable Of 'Skewing' The True Facts To THEIR Advantage
By Using Those TAXPAYER DOLLARS, 'LEGAL GYMNASTICS' And
DECPTIVE PRACTICES, Is WHOLLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
Public servants are expected to make decisions with high levels of professionalism and commitment to the public good, and in a transparent and accountable manner. The three most essential obligations of public servants, which underpin their public decision-making, are to follow the law, use public resources in an effective manner, and act ethically.
The legitimacy of the public service, therefore, depends on citizens' trust. To win this trust, public service needs to be just, fair, transparent, responsive to citizens' needs, and compliant with the relevant laws, regulations and quality standards.
ATTORNEY'S OATH OF OFFICE
"You do swear that you will support the Constitution of the United States and that of the state of Minnesota, and will conduct yourself as an attorney and counselor at law in an upright and courteous manner, to the best of your learning and ability, with all good fidelity as well to the court as to the client, and that you will use no falsehood or deceit, nor delay any person's cause for lucre or malice. So help you God."

And then, when all of the CLEAR and CONVINCING, IRREFUTABLE, INCONTROVERTIBLE and INDISPUTABLE facts and evidence of what's been taking place in the City Of Hamburg (now for) OVER A YEAR is forwarded to CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, he REFUSES TO INVESTIGATE OR TAKE ANY ACTION , (EVEN THOUGH MINNESOTA STATUTES REQUIRE HIM TO TAKE ACTION), because of his PERSONAL and PROFESSIONAL RELATIONSHIPS with, and the IDENTITIES of, the other PERSONS INVOLVED and the IDENTITIES of other PERSONS who will be EXPOSED !!

GRAND JURY GUIDE
I. Purpose of Convening a Grand Jury
in Minnesota
A. Overview
The primary function of a grand jury is to review evidence presented by a prosecutor and determine whether there is probable cause to return an indictment.
In Minnesota, grand juries perform the following functions:
* Bring charges. Indictments must be used by a prosecutor if the offense charged is punishable by life imprisonment (Minn. Stat. §§ 609.185; 609.385), and may, at the option of the prosecutor, be used in other cases. Minnesota Rules Of Criminal Procedure 17.01.* Inquiries regarding prisons and public officials. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 628.61, the grand jury shall inquire into:▪ The condition of every person imprisoned on a criminal charge in the county, and not indicted;▪ The condition and management of the public prisons in the county; and▪ The willful and corrupt misconduct of ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS holding office in the county.B. Prosecutor Presents Evidence
The prosecutor presents evidence in order to establish there is probable cause to believe an offense has been committed and the defendant committed it. Grand juries give prosecutors the ability to subpoena witnesses, who have to testify under oath, and to subpoena the production of evidence. The evidence can be almost anything – testimony from witnesses, documents, video recordings, tape recordings, the results of scientific tests, photographs, etc.
MINNESOTA 2020 STATUTES
628.61 MATTERS INQUIRED INTO
The grand jury shall inquire:
(1) into the condition of every person imprisoned on a criminal charge triable in the county, and not indicted;
(2) into the condition and management of the public prisons in the county; and
(3) into the willful and corrupt misconduct in office of ALL PUBLIC OFFICERS in the county.

To no one's surprise, the MINNESOTA LAWYERS PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY BOARD/OFFICE OF LAWYERS PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY REFUSED to INVESTIGATE OR TAKE ANY ACTION; presumably because of the IDENTITY, STATUS and POSITION of those individuals involved and accused. THEY NEVER EVEN CALLED ME !!
The 'Common Thread', here; is that, with the exception of the Minnesota Lawyer's Professional Responsibility Board, ALL of
the PERSONS INVOLVED in WHAT'S TAKING PLACE IN THE CITY OF HAMBURG, are ALL PUBLIC OFFICERS !!
What a HORRIBLE & CORRUPT 'SYSTEM' We Have IN CARVER COUNTY To
Keep Our ELECTED, And OTHER PUBLIC OFFICIALS, Honest & Accountable !!
At all times material herein, Jeremy Gruenhagen was, and currently is, the City Clerk/Treasurer of the City of Hamburg. As such, Jeremy Gruenhagen is designated as a 'PUBLIC OFFICER' of the City of Hamburg and serves at the pleasure of, and is wholly, and directly, accountable to the elected Mayor, and four elected City Council Members of the City of Hamburg.
At all times material herein, the elected Mayor of the City of Hamburg was/is Christopher Lund and the City Council Members for the City were/are Eric Poplar, Tim Tracy, Jason Buckentin and Scott Feltmann. Because of their elected position as well as their statutory duties and responsibilities, BOTH the Mayor of the City of Hamburg, as well as the four elected City Council Members for the City of Hamburg, are designated as PUBLIC OFFICERS of the City of Hamburg.
At all times material herein, the City of Hamburg 'contracted/contracts' with the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN for legal services and legal advice in matters relating to the City of Hamburg. In the past the primary lawyer supplied to the City of Hamburg by the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN was ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM; believed to be a 'partner' is said law firm. It is believed that in addition to 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM, other lawyers affiliated the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN were also supplied to the City of Hamburg from time to time.
At all times material herein and because of the contract for legal services that existed/exists between the City of Hamburg and the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, lawyers affiliated with the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, representing, working on behalf of and being paid by the City of Hamburg, including 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM, is/are designated as PUBLIC OFFICERS of the City of Hamburg.
At all times material herein, Gruenhagen, acting in his official capacity as a salaried PUBLIC OFFICER for the City of Hamburg, is an employee of the City of Hamburg, as well.
In that capacity as a PUBLIC OFFICER and EMPLOYEE for the City of Hamburg during the time period beginning in approximately September and October 2019 and perhaps after conferring with the HAMBURG MAYOR and/or the 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM, Gruenhagen, INTENTIONALLY and with MALACE, WILLFULLY and VOLUNTARILY AUTHORED, and TENDERED, an e-mail message, an OFFICIAL CITY OF HAMBURG DOCUMENT, relating to a request for PUBLIC INFORMATION regarding a pending civil lawsuit against the City of Hamburg. Said document AUTHORED and TENDERED by HAMBURG CITY CLERK JEREMY GRUENHGEM, contained FALSE, FRAUDULENT, FABRICATED and MISLEADING INFORMATION in an COVERT ATTEMPT to PREVENT or CAUSE TO BE PREVENTED, or DELAYED, receipt of the requested PUBLIC INFORMATION being sought by the requestor. A copy of the FRAUDULENT e-mail, AUTHORED and TENDERED by HAMBURG CITY CLERK JEREMY GRUENHGEN KNOWING that it contained FALSE INFORMATOION, is shown below:
The INCONTROVERTIBLE EVIDENCE CLEARLY SHOWS That The HAMBURG CITY/CLERK TREASURER INTENTIONALLY VIOLATED THE LAW; (MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 - MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE) By INTENTIONALLY Committing The Offenses Summarized Above. HOWEVER, If He ACTED AT THE DIRECTION OF OTHER CITY OF HAMBURG & CARVER COUNTY PUBLIC OFFICIALS, The City Of Hamburg and Carver County Have A New, EVEN MORE SERIOUS, "SET OF PROBLEMS".
In reality, it appears, at least to me, that HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN is a HAMBURG CITY OFFICIAL and EMPLOYEE that lacks any integrity. An 'honest' person would REFUSE to 'go along with' what's taken place in the City of Hamburg. And, because he's been led to believe he will ESCAPE PROSECUTION, he, like the other PUBLIC OFFICIALS involved, truly believe that they are 'invincible'.
Well; we'll just have to 'wait and see;' about that. In the meantime, please CLICK HERE to see the definition of 'CONSPIRACY'.
Because CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ REFUSED TO CALL A GRAND JURY, Where Persons Involved Are
REQUIRED TO PROVIDE TESTIMONY, UNDER OATH, The TAXPAYERS Are NOT ALLOWED TO KNOW THE TRUTH !!
That, In My Mind, Constitutes Of A 'COVER UP' !! (Please CLICK HERE.) I'm Certain That The United States Attorney General Merrick Garland Will Be Interested In That. And I Believe That United States Attorney General Merrick Garland Will ALSO Interested In The OUTRAGEOUS REFUSAL Of MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON to act appropriately, lawfully and responsibly !!

PUBLIC OFFICIAL; CLEARLY APPLICABLE In This Case Because Of The Outrageous And NEGLIGENT Conduct Involved.
THE ABOVE PORTION OF THIS WEBPAGE, IS ABOUT THE CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY, MARK METZ, WHO IS PAID WITH TAXPAYER DOLLARS, HIS LACK OF INITIATIVE, HIS LACK OF ACTION, HIS FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH MINNESOTA STATUTES
AS WELL AS HIS ALLEGED INVOLVEMENT IN THIS MATTER
IT KIND OF REMINDS ONE OF THE FORMER, AND NOW DISBARRED, CARLTON COUNTY ATTORNEY ..........
IT'S NO WONDER THERE'S SO MUCH CIVIL UNREST IN OUR COUNTRY AND DEDICATED
LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES ARE BEING
ATTACKED, INJURED AND KILLED.
WHEN PROSECUTORS, SUCH AS MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON AND CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, INSTEAD OF BEING FAIR AND IMPARTIAL, SUCCUMB TO PREJUDICIAL FAVORITISM OF THOSE
WHO BREAK THE LAW BECAUSE OF WHO THEY ARE OR WHO THEY 'KNOW', IT'S TIME TO "SHUT OFF
THE LIGHTS, CLOSE THE DOOR, PUT THE KEY IN THE LOCK" AND TURN OUR GREAT
COUNTRY OVER TO THE THUGS AND CORRUPT POLITICIANS.
DEFINITIONS OF 'CORRUPT':
Guilty of dishonest practices, (like the City cellphone 'caper') such as bribery; lacking integrity; crooked.

IT'S REALLY VERY SIMPLE ......
EVEN IN HAMBURG, Everyone Expects PUBLIC OFFICIALS To Be IMPECCABLY HONEST, UNWAVERINGLY TRUTHFUL, HIGHLY ETHICAL and METICULOUSLY PROFESSIONAL
At All Times.
But What Happens, As In The Case Of The City
Of Hamburg, When Those PUBLIC OFFICIALS Decide To ABUSE THEIR POSITION and
AUTHORITY, and TOTALLY DISREGARD The HONESTY, TRUTHFULNESS, ETHICS
And PROFESSIONAL DEMEANOR
That Is REQUIRED, And EXPECTED, Of Them ?
Even Worse Is The Fact That The 'SYSTEM'
That Is Supposed To DETECT and ABATE This
TOTAL DISREGARD, By PUBLIC OFFICIALS,
For COMPLIANCE With The LAW, ACCEPTED

MISERABLY Because Of WHO IS INVOLVED;
Much To The DETRIMENT OF TAXPAYERS, !!

As this Webpage is CONTINUALLY BEING UPDATED, PLEASE CHECK BACK LATER for additional information and details about WHAT ELSE
TOOK PLACE as the result of the actions of the PUBLIC OFFICERS of the City of Hamburg. You'll learn and much more information and details
about HOW the REFUSAL of CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, and other PUBLIC OFFICIALS to fully employ the 'system'
designed to PROTECT THE PUBLIC, DETECT, BRING TO JUSTICE AND HOLD ACCOUNTABLE, those LAWYERS and other
PUBLIC OFFICERS who violate the law (and the PUBLIC TRUST), FAILED MISERABLY !!
As stated above, in my view what has taken place started in 2014 is because of the deleterious actions of a single individual, HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, JEREMY GRUENHAGEN. And, that's when all of the other former, and current, Hamburg PUBLIC OFFICIALS; much to the detriment of the City and its residents, 'jumped on the band wagon'; like rats following the Pied Piper; (a person who entices others to follow him), and everything began to 'go downhill'. There's also no question whatsoever in my mind that it was Hamburg's 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM of the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, who was 'cheering everybody on' and was 'instrumental' in ALSO intentionally involving former CARVER COUNTY SHERIFF JAMES OLSON, current CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, and DEPUTY CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER IVY, in her 'zeal', combined with the determination of the other Hamburg PUBLIC OFFICIALS, trying desperately, deliberately and UNSUCCESSFULLY, to force me off the Hamburg City Council before my four year term (2013-2016) expired. (In that 'fiasco', Dohm's Waconia based law firm, MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, 'walked away' with $50,000.00 from HAMBURG TAXPAYERS !!)
Instead of sacrificing any integrity that he may have ever once had, if the HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, JEREMY GRUENHAGEN had been honest from the very beginning and had not INTENTIONALLY LIED and had not INTENTIONALLY PREPARED a KNOWINGLY FALSE and FRAUDULENT OFFICIAL CITY DOCUMENT, EVERYTHING that your read about on this Website that's taken place in the City of Hamburg, WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED !! (And this Website WOULDN'T EXIST !!)
But, because of his devious acts and insolent attitude, HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, JEREMY GRUENHAGE, by his WHOLLY UNACEPTABLE ACTIONS & MISDEEDS, has now involved CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, DEPUTY CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER IVY, 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM of the Waconia based law firm, MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, as well as other, yet identified, HAMBURG and CARVER COUNTY PUBLIC OFFICIALS !!

For More Information
MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL
KEITH ELLISON
MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 - MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE
A public officer or employee who does any of the following, for which no other sentence is specifically provided by law, may be sentenced to imprisonment for not more than one year or to payment of a fine of not more than $3,000, or both:
(1) intentionally fails or refuses to perform a known mandatory, nondiscretionary, ministerial duty of the office or employment within the time or in the manner required by law; or
(2) in the capacity of such officer or employee, does an act knowing it is in excess of lawful authority or knowing it is forbidden by law to be done in that capacity; or
(3) under pretense or color of official authority intentionally and unlawfully injures another in the other's person, property, or rights; or
(4) in the capacity of such officer or employee, makes a return, certificate, official report, or other like document having knowledge it is false in any material respect.
Here's What The MINNESOTA GRAND JURY GUIDE Also States:
* Inquiries regarding prisons and public officials. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 628.61, the grand jury shall inquire into:
▪ The condition of every person imprisoned on a criminal charge in the county, and not indicted;▪ The condition and management of the public prisons in the county; and▪ The WILLFUL AND CORRUPT MISCONDUCT IN OFFICE OF ALL PUBLIC OFFICERS IN THE COUNTY. 
MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61 - MATTERS INQUIRED INTO
The grand jury shall inquire:
(1) into the condition of every person imprisoned on a criminal charge triable in the county, and not indicted;
(2) into the condition and management of the public prisons in the county; and
(3) into the WILLFUL AND CORRUPT MISCONDUCT IN OFFICE OF ALL PUBLIC OFFICERS IN THE COUNTY.
CLEARLY, The CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY, MARK METZ, IS REQUIRED BY STATE LAW TO TAKE ACTION !!! (But he REFUSES TO DO SO because of WHO ELSE IS INVOLVED & WILL ALSO BE IMPLICATED !!!)
Because Of The REFUSAL Of
CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ
To Empanel A
GRAND JURY
As
REQUIRED BY LAW,
(see MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61),
The True And Complete Facts And Information (That I KNOW) Of What Really Has Taken Place In The
City of Hamburg By City And County PUBLIC OFFICIALS, Can Not Be Known !!
Was What Took Place In Hamburg Solely A 'Lone Act' Of The
HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER ?
Or Was He 'INSTRUCTED', By Other PUBLIC OFFICIALS, To Commit The Acts That Took Place ? If So, WHO Are Those
'Other' PUBLIC OFFICIALS, WHEN Did They Know About What Was Taking Place, WHAT Did They Do, WHEN Did
They Do It And WHAT Did They Tell Him To Do ? A Grand Jury Would Have EASILY Provided These 'Answers'.
But, Carver County Attorney Mark Metz Chose To INTENTIONALLY VIOLATE THE LAW INSTEAD
In Order To PROTECT THOSE INVOLVED And Those Who Are YET TO BE IDENTIFIED !!
DEFIANT
MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON
REFUSED TWICE TO INVESTIGATE ALLEGED
Of
HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS &
THE CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY !!
HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS: "ABOVE THE LAW'' ??
CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY: REFUSES TO PROSECUTE !!
IS IT BECAUSE OF WHO IS INVOLVED & WILL ALSO BE IMPLICATED ??

PUBLIC
ACCOUNTABILITY
Public accountability is the hallmark of modern democratic governance. Democracy remains a paper procedure if those in power cannot be held accountable in public for their acts and omissions, for their decisions, their policies, and their expenditures. Public accountability, as an institution, therefore, is the complement of public management. As a concept, however, “public accountability” is rather elusive. It is one of those evocative political words that can be used to patch up a rambling argument, to evoke an image of trustworthiness, fidelity, and justice, or to hold critics at bay. Historically, the concept of accountability is closely related to accounting. In fact, it literally comes from bookkeeping. Nowadays, accountability has moved far beyond its bookkeeping origins and has become a symbol for good governance, both in the public and in the private sector.

COMMON SENSE: ”SOUND AND PRUDENT JUDGEMENT BASED ON A SIMPLE PERCEPTION OF THE SITUATION OR FACTS.”
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg and MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 PROHIBITS, ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS, including HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, from using DECEPTIVE or MISLEADING WORDS and MISDEEDS as did HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN on or about October 15, 2019, again on October 21, 2019 (please see below) and perhaps at other times as well. Such abhorrent behavior, by a PUBLIC OFFICIAL, no less; is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg and MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 PROHIBITS, ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS, including HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, that AUTHORING an OFFICIAL CITY DOCUMENT that he KNEW contained INTENTIONALLY FALSE, UNTRUE, MISLEADING and FRAUDULENT information, is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg and MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 PROHIBITS, the ACTIONS, WORDS and MISDEEDS of HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN committed on or about October 15, 2019, again on October 21, 2019 and perhaps at other times as well, that UTTERING an OFFICIAL CITY DOCUMENT that he KNEW contained INTENTIONALLY FALSE, MISLEADING and FRAUDULENT information, is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg and MINNESOTA STATUTE 152.096 PROHIBITS, that ALL PUBLIC OFFICIALS, including HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, that CONSPIRING, on or about October 15, 2019, again on October 21, 2019 and perhaps at other times as well, with the ‘contract’ HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM of the Waconia based law form of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, for the purpose of INTENTIONALLY WITHHOLDING or otherwise DELAYING, the release of PUBLIC INFORMATION to a TAXPAYING HAMBURG CITY RESIDENT is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that upon learning of the UNETHICAL, DEPLORABLE and ILLEGAL actions of HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND and the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS should have promptly initiated appropriate administrative action and a COMPLETE and THOROUGH INVESTIGATION to determine EXACTLY WHAT TOOK PLACE involving HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN and the identities of all other persons involved. FAILURE and/or REFUSAL to do so by HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that instead of HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND and the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL acting responsibly and in the BEST INTERESTS of CITY RESIDENTS, HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND and the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL FAILED TO TAKE ANY ACTION WHATSOEVER for the UNLAWFUL and UNETHICAL acts of HAMBURG CITY CLEK TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN and, instead, VOTED TO APPROVE a 4% SALARY INCREASE for HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN; an 'action' that comes under the 'heading' of "REWARDING BAD BEHAVIOR" and is an TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE ACT !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that it is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE for HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND and the other CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS to agree to pay $6,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS annually for medical insurance for the PART TIME 'Deputy' City Clerk !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that in so doing, the CITY OF HAMBURG is AVOIDING THE PAYMENT of STATE and FEDERAL PAYROLL TAXES !! That's called 'CHEATING' !! "COMMON SENSE" also tells me that's ILLEGAL !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that ALL financial obligations of the CITY OF HAMBURG must be paid, in full, on or before the date that they are due to be paid. During at least one Hamburg City Council Meeting attended by the CPA Firm that performs annual audits of the Annual Financial Transactions of the City, it was reported that there were 'delinquencies' of payments of some of the City's financial obligations; SPECIFICALLY to the INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE, the PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ASSOCIATION and other accounts owed by the City. LATE PAYMENTS OF CITY FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS are TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that as TAXPAYING RESIDENTS, we are FULLY ENTITLED to know how our taxpayer dollars are being spent. It is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE for the HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER and the OFFICE OF THE MINNESOTA STATE AUDITOR, to REFUSE to provide information regarding ANY and ALL BILL PAYMENT DELINQUENCIES of the CITY OF HAMBURG, to City residents upon inquiry !!
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that it is irresponsible government for HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND and the four CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS to TOTALLY IGNORE and TOTALLY DISREGARD allegations of MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE of the City Of Hamburg, in violation of MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43.
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that when notified of alleged MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE within his county, It is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE for CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ to REFUSE to initiate appropriate action as REQUIRED in accordance with MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61; EMPANELLING A GRAND JURY, in VIOLATION of MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61. Additionally, it took CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ SIX MONTHS to even RESPOND to a written, FORMAL CRIMINAL COMPLAINT made to him involving HAMBURG PUBLIC OFFICIALS !! To see my communications with CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY METZ, PLEASE CLICK HERE.
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that WITHOUT A GRAND JURY, the FULL TRUTH of what has taken place in the CITY OF HAMBURG and the IDENTITIES OF THOSE OTHER PUBLIC OFFICIALS INVOLVED, WILL NEVER BE KNOWN !! This is NOT 'rocket science', folks; that's EXACTLY what the PUBLIC OFFICIALS involved, want. It's like them having their own "GET OUT OF JAIL FREE" cards.
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that when notified of alleged MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE within his county, it is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE for the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY to REFUSE to empanel a Grand Jury as REQUIRED in accordance with MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61 as well as REQUIRED by the RULES contained in the MINNESOTA GRAND JURY GUIDE.
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that when notified that members of the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE have REFUSED to comply with, and INTENTIONALLY VIOLATED, various MINNESOTA STATUTES and RULES that dictate what their specific actions are to be taken in a given situation, it is TOTALLY ACCEPTABLE for STATE OF MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON to be contacted and notified as to what is taking place with, and the identity of, the PUBLIC OFFICIALS involved.
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that it is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE for MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON to REFUSE TO INVESTIGATE, or CAUSE TO BE INVESTIGATED, any violations of MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43, MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61 and any other pertinent MINNESOTA STATUTES or RULES that were, or may have been, INTENTIONALLY VIOLATED by members of the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE and the PUBLIC OFFICIALS of the CITY OF HAMBURG because of who is involved or will be implicated. (To see my ENTIRE, UNEDITED LETTER TO ATTORNEY GENERAL ELLISON, PLEASE CLICK HERE.)
“COMMON SENSE” tells all of us living in Hamburg that when compelling evidence and irrefutable documents are presented to them and accompany an official allegation of misconduct of an attorney, it is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE for the LAWYER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY BOARD to perform only a 'cursory investigation' and NOT EVEN TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION the INTENTIONAL and OBVIOUS VIOLATIONS OF LAW; of specifically MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61, MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43 and other RULES, by the members of the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.
The Minnetonka School Board Chairman said it best: "I believe that children watch what adults do to learn how to behave." If our elected PUBLIC OFFICIALS and others that are 'in authority' aren't required to obey the laws of our Great State and there
are no 'consequences' for their CARELESS, INTENTIONAL DISREGARD of our state laws and appropriate 'rules', where is the example and 'incentive' for residents, visitors, citizens and our 'future leaders of tomorrow' of our Great State, to be 'law abiding' ?

Do You Know What The Difference Is Between An 'EXEMPT' Employee And 'NON-EXEMPT' EMPLOYEE ?
NON-EXEMPT employees are guaranteed an hourly wage and 'overtime' pay under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). They must earn at
least the federal or state minimum wage for every hour worked, and 'overtime' pay for any amount of time exceeding 40 hours. 'Overtime'
is any amount of time worked in excess of 40 hours per week. Even if NON-EXEMPT employees earn more than the federal
minimum wage, they still take direction from supervisors and do NOT have administrative or executive positions.
EXEMPT employees provide administrative support services to production and operation staff and can include employees in human resources, accounting, legal, public relations, compliance, finance, payroll and other related roles. These “salaried” employees
receive the same amount of pay per pay period , even if they put in overtime hours and are NOT entitled overtime pay by
the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).

SEND IT TO THE FBI For 'Safekeeping' ??
Click On The Image Above To Make It Larger.
When I Was A Hamburg City Council Member (2013-2016), It Was Reported To Us That Someone Was
SABOTAGING THE CITY'S FIRE TRUCKS
By Entering The Hamburg Fire Station, Undetected; And
UNPLUGGING THE TRUCK'S BATTERY CHARGERS
As Well As
DISCONNECTING THE TRUCK'S BRAKE AIR HOSES !!
Knowing WHO Had The OPPORTUNITY, the UNRESTRICTED ACCESS To The Fire Station, And Also Had The MOTIVE, I Wanted The Other CITY OFFICIALS To Report These INTENTIONAL ACTS OF SABOTAGE That Potentially Subjected DEDICATED FIREFIGHTERS To PERSONAL INJURY As Well As DELAYING THE RESPONSE TIME Of EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT Used To SAVE LIVES and PROPERTY.
Once Again; Because Of WHO WOULD BE IDENTIFIED As The Perpetrator Of These CRIMINAL ACTS,
HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS REFUSED TO REPORT THE INCIDENTS TO THE CARVER COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE !! But; I DID !!
In A Nearly TWO HOUR MEETING With FORMER CARVER COUNTY SHERIFF JAMES OLSON, And At A Later Meeting With FORMER Sheriff James Olson And His 'Command Staff', I Informed Him, WAY BACK THEN, Of What Was Taking Place In The CITY OF HAMBURG By Its PUBLIC OFFICIALS. Sheriff James Olson, DID NOTHING !!

WHEN PROSECUTORS, SUCH AS MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON AND CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, INSTEAD OF BEING FAIR AND IMPARTIAL, SUCCUMB TO PREJUDICIAL FAVORITISM
OF THOSE WHO BREAK THE LAW
BECAUSE OF WHO THEY ARE OR WHO
THEY 'KNOW', IT'S TIME TO "SHUT OFF
THE LIGHTS, CLOSE THE DOOR, PUT THE
KEY IN THE LOCK" AND TURN OUR
GREAT COUNTRY OVER TO THE
THUGS AND CORRUPT POLITICIANS.
FALL 'HOUSECLEANING' THIS FALL ?? THE TERMS OF MAYOR CHRIS LUND &
COUNCILMEMBER ERIC POPLAR ALL EXPIRE AT THE END OF DECEMBER 2022 !!
Dr. Scott Jensen, a Chaska physician (that's gotta make Chaska real 'proud' and 'overjoyed' !!) and also a Republican candidate for Minnesota Governor, is calling for 'civil disobedience' among Minnesotans and businesses in the state, asking them to ignore vaccine and mask guidance intended to stem the spread of COVID-19.
QUESTION #1: A GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE calling for 'civil disobedience' ??
We've got enough 'civil disobedience' already in Minnesota without some idiot, a DOCTOR, no less; seeking election to MINNESOTA'S HIGHEST OFFICE, 'encouraging' more !
QUESTION #2: A PHYSICIAN asking Minnesota residents to IGNORE vaccine and mask guidance intended to stem the spread of COVID-19 ??
Minnesota voters will address, and solve the first question above, next fall.
As for the second question above, the MINNESOTA BOARD OF MEDICAL PRACTICE doesn't have to wait until next fall to resolve that issue. Like COVID-19 itself; Jensen's advice is a PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE !!
The MINNESOTA BOARD OF MEDICAL PRACTICE has the authority, responsibility and PUBLIC OBLIGATION to IMMEDIATELY SUSPEND (or even REVOKE) JENSEN's LICENSE TO PRACTICE MEDICINE in Minnesota !! And, they should do so, "STAT" !!

AGENDA NOT POSTED AS OF 09-12-21
Regularly Scheduled Hamburg City Council Meeting Is September 14, 2021
The message below appears on
the City's Webpage.......
In his 'closing argument' of the actual 'facts and evidence' presented to the jury during the murder trial of George Floyd by former Minneapolis Policeman Derek Chauvin, Prosecuting Attorney Steve Schleicher, who SUCCESSFULLY prosecuted the murder case (in an EXCELLENT MANNER and at NO CHARGE TO TAXPAYERS), used the term "COMMON SENSE" a total of FOURTEEN TIMES because of how important
"COMMON SENSE" truly is/was when combined with the overwhelming; incontrovertible evidence presented to the jury, in obtaining a conviction of the accused by an impartial jury.
In my narrative contained above on this Webpage and primarily directed to the HAMBURG, CARVER COUNTY and MINNESOTA residents and other visitors to my Website (which ALSO is at NO CHARGE TO TAXPAYERS), I've used the term "COMMON SENSE" a total of EIGHTEEN TIMES. The importance of "COMMON SENSE" is fundamental. Alerting the residents of the CITY OF HAMBURG, CARVER COUNTY and the STATE OF MINNESOTA about what's taking place with our PUBLIC OFFICIALS is CRITICALLY IMPORTANT. Those PUBLIC OFFICIALS IGNORING that OVERWHELMING, INCONTROVERTIBLE EVIDENCE of MISCONDUCT OF A PUBLIC OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE, is REPREHENSIBLE !! Those found guilty are subject to SUBSTANTIAL FINES and IMPRISONMENT !!
When the UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE completes their pending investigation of the CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS and the MINNEAPOLIS POLICE DEPARTMENT, perhaps UNITED STATES ATTORNEY GENERAL MERRICK GARLAND will direct them to investigate what's taking place in the CITY OF HAMBURG, the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE and the MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE, by PUBLIC OFFICIALS associated therewith; that you've been reading about on this Website for the last year and a half involving those PUBLIC OFFICIALS who REFUSE TO TAKE ANY ACTION BECAUSE OF THE IDENTITY OF WHO IS INVOLVED and BECAUSE OF THEIR 'PROFESSIONAL STATUS'. It defies "COMMON SENSE". But maybe, just maybe; that's all about to change. And if the F.B.I. gets involved, that's EVEN BETTER !!
Did you know you can watch Board of Commissioner
meetings on demand via their YouTube channel ??

Good Morning Dick,
Thank you for the cc letter of your support of the dedicated professionals of the CC Sheriff’s office! I agree the coordination between the Sheriff’s office, Fire, E.M.S. and the State and Federal Agencies was refreshing!
I hope you are enjoying your summer and will have time to catch some Amateur BB at the Hamburg Park!
Thank you for your help and support!

Definition Of
"COMMON SENSE":
Sound and prudent judgment based on a simple perception
of the situation or facts.
YOU DON'T NEED IT
The Mailer I Recently Sent Out (And There WILL Be More) Certainly Generated A Lot Of Interest In My Website About The CITY OF HAMBURG & What Is Taking Place With Our PUBLIC OFFICIALS !! CLICK HERE TO HEAR OTHER COMMENTS MADE (Recorded From The APRIL 27, 2021 HAMBURG CITY COUNTIL MEETING) By CITY OFFICIALS During Several HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL Meetings About The Controversy Of The CITY OF HAMBURG Providing 'Discounted Cellphone Service' To (NOT RESIDENTS), But ONLY CITY OFFICIALS, CITY EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES Involving TAXPAYER DOLLARS !! The HAMBURG COUNCILMEMBER (who IDENTIFIED HIMSELF) and made his IRRESPONSIBLE REMARKS (that you're hearing while reading this Webpage) about my anonymity are CLEARLY FALSE !! (My NAME, STREET ADDRESS, TELEPHONE NUMBER and E-MAIL ADDRESS are CLEARLY, and EASILY, available, and accessible, on BOTH of my Websites !!) And; THIS PERSON is RESPONSIBLE for 'DECISION MAKING' and SPENDING TAXPAYER DOLLARS in the CITY OF HAMBURG ?? YIKES !! He appears to me to be a very unhappy, troubled person with a lot of 'hate and anger' in his heart. Serving as an elected HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBER. WOW; FACT is STRANGER than FICTION !! I wonder Who READS this Website to him ?
Also, that SAME HAMBURG COUNCILMEMBER HAS ALSO CLEARLY LIED !! (NO surprise there.) I NEVER STATED the CITY was paying for their monthly cellphone service !! That, of course, was ANOTHER LIE; FABRICATED, & PUBLICLY STATED, by the HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBER !! The most deluded people are those who choose to ignore what they already know. It's called HERD STUPIDITY; for which there is NO VACCINATION. GOD HELP US ALL !! (You'll recall that I have previously referred to what was taking place by HAMBURG PUBLIC OFFICIALS involving TAXPAYER DOLLARS as 'REVERSE MONEY LAUNDERING' !!)
With the exception of Hamburg Mayor Chris Lund, who, in himself; is a 'piece of work', it's important to point out that I have NEVER MET ANY of the elected CITY COUNCILMEMBERS. My 'perception' of all four of them is SOLEY based on hearing them 'in action' by listening to the generally VERY POOR QUALITY HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL meeting recordings of all of them via the City's 'Official' Website. (A concept that I was responsible for initiating when I was a HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBER; 2013-2016.)
By listening to those very poor quality recordings of the four elected CITY COUNCILMEMBERS, COUNCILMEMBER TIM TRACY seems to be the only individual that has a clear-thinking head on his shoulders and 'impresses' me the most; at least to this point. (It's too soon for me to form an objective impression of newly elected HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBER JESSICA WEBER who was seated on the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL this past January, but it's good to see the diversity of bringing in a woman again to what has historically always been a 'male dominated' "GOOD OLD BOYS CLUB" atmosphere of PUBLIC OFFICIALS in the CITY OF HAMBURG.)
As for the other two HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBERS, if you've listened to Hamburg's answer to the 'Bobsey Twins' during any of the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL Meetings, it's very clear and easy to quickly recognize, and form an accurate opinion about their suitability and effectiveness as representatives of the CITY OF HAMBURG. Notice how the TRUE FACTS are knowingly 'MANIPULATED & DISTORTED' and interpreted to THEIR 'liking' instead of them ACKNOWLEDGING & ACCEPTING what those facts truly are and represent. To validate that statement, you're listening (FIREFOX BROWSER REQUIRED !!) to the rambling (again) and THREATENING COMMENTS of one of the two CITY OF HAMBURG, 'hayseeds'; recorded at the April 27, 2021 HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL Meeting. He sounds like a 'radical vigilante' to me !! And, here's something that you won't hear or read on the City's 'Official' Website: The WIFE of that same 'Holier-Than- Thou' HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMAN, 'GAVE THE FINGER' To A FELLOW CITY RESIDENT !! How RUDE , IMPOLITE and IMPROPER is that ?? YES; the WIFE of an ELECTED HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMAN TOWARD A CITY RESIDENT !! Lovely !! WELCOME TO HAMBURG, folks; where FACT is STRANGER than FICTION !!
SEE IF YOU AGREE THAT THE IRRESPONSIBLE, REPREHENSIBLE, AND HIGHLY OFFENSIVE CONDUCT OF CITY OFFICIALS IS WHOLLY INAPPROPRIATE & UNACCEPTABLE !!
MINNESOTA STATUTE 628.61 dictates under what circumstances a Grand Jury is empanelled:
628.61 MATTERS INQUIRED INTO
The grand jury shall inquire:
(1) into the condition of every person imprisoned on a criminal charge triable in the county, and not indicted;
(2) into the condition and management of the public prisons in the county; and
(3) into the willful and corrupt misconduct in office of all public officers in the county.
At this point, so far we’ve identified the HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, the 'contract'
HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY, KELLY C. DOHM, and the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY involved. But wait; THERE’S MORE !!
On June 23, 2020, MORE THAN SIX MONTHS AFTER I INITILLY CONTECTED THE CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY, I received a letter from ‘DEPUTY’ COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER IVY; a person in the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY’S OFFICE that I’m NOT totally ‘unfamiliar’ with. I first learned who he was when I was on the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL from 2013-2016. While serving as a HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL, I had this preponderance of asking ‘WHY’ ? A question that virtually nobody apparently has ever asked before (or probably since).
That’s a whole different story, but the ’end result’ was that the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL wasted $50,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS in their (unsuccessful) attempt to force me to resign my position on the City Council !! While the HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER was the ‘catalyst’ behind the effort to remove me, the ’contract’ HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY, KELLY C. DOHM, from the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & JODIN was ‘right in there pitchin’ along side the other member of the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL, coming of with all these wild and grandiose 'ideas’ of ‘tactics to try’ that were taking money out of the Taxpayers (Hamburg’s) ’bank account’ and ‘fattening up’ the law firms bank account!!
All the while, I can’t tell you the number of times KELLY C. DOHM said (paraphrasing) “Peter Ivy this, or Peter Ivy that or I’ll talk to Peter Ivy”. It was really pretty pathetic to watch, hear and experience.

Mayor's 'infamous 'flyers' but, for SOME STRANGE REASON, my copy never reached my mailbox !!
(Must be the 'mail slowdown' !!)
We've now learned that our dedicated and very valuable Public Works employee wiil be retiring in early 2022. Considering a variety of factors, including being "ON CALL24/7/365", it will be very much of a CHALLENGE for the City to find a replacement employee as conscientious as Greg.
He was one of ONLY TWO candidates that applied for the opening when I was on the City Council. He's served the City well; a very knowledgeable and 'talented' individual.

REMEMBER THESE TWO WORDS: "PROBABLE CAUSE''
(You'll Be Hearing Them Again. Often.)
"Probable Cause" requires more than a mere suspicion that a suspect committed a crime, but not an absolute certainty. 'Probable Cause' is the legal standard that requires facts or evidence in a given situation that would lead a reasonable person to believe that a suspect has committed a crime and that suspect accused, did, in fact, commit the crime of which he or she is accused. (In Illinois v. Gates, 462 U.S. 213, 232 (1983), the Court favored a flexible approach, viewing 'Probable Cause' as a "practical, non-technical" standard that calls upon the factual and practical considerations of everyday life on which reasonable and prudent men [...] act". (Courts often adopt a broader, more flexible view of 'Probable Cause' when the alleged offenses are serious.) Like; INVOLVING 'PUBLIC OFFICIALS', maybe ??
Various terms and words are used on this Website (with 'definition links' provided) that describe what took/is taking place in the CITY OF HAMBURG by its PUBLIC OFFICIALS. When I, as a FORMER CITY OFFICIAL, made a FORMAL COMPLAINT of what was taking place in the City by it's PUBLIC OFFICIALS to CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ, he basically gave my report of PUBLIC OFFICIAL MISCONDUCT (MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43) and CORRUPTION the 'DEEP SIX' because of who was involved and who would further be identifed and also be implicated should a formal, CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION be conducted. (Metz, INTENTIONALLY 'QUASHED' my complaint made to him !!). As you will learn from reading this Website, CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ is REQUIRED BY MINNESOTA STATUTE, to initiate very specific actions, INCLUDING EMPANELING A GRAND JURY, whenever MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS AND/OR EMPLOYEES, is reported to him. But, for reasons detailed on this Website, COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ REFUSED TO COMPLY WITH MINNESOTA LAW and DID NOTHING; hoping, presumably; that 'EVERYTHING WILL JUST GO AWAY' !! It HASN'T and it WON'T !! (To see my communications with CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY METZ, PLEASE CLICK HERE.) Now, two years later, not only are the residents of Hamburg STILL LEARNING about the 'SERIOUS SHORTCOMINGS' and 'QUESTIONABLE ACTIONS' of our LOCAL PUBLIC OFFICIALS and the MASSIVE "COVER-UP" TAKING PLACE, but ALSO the involvement of CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ as well as the INDIFFERENCE of MINNESOTA'S PREDJUDICIAL ATTORNEY GENERAL; KEITH ELLISON !!
TOO MUCH AUTHORITY; TOO LITTLE ACCOUNTABILITY !!
Remember When I Discovered And REPORTED That HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS Had 'Worked A Deal' With Verizon That Allowed CITY OFFICIALS, CITY EMPLOYEES AND THEIR FAMILIES, To 'Cash In' On Getting A DICOUNTED RATE For Cell Phone Service ?? It Was Even Worse, Yet; When I Disclosed That HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS Were 'Involving' TAXPAYER DOLLARS In What I Then Referred To As 'REVERSE MONEY LAUNDERING' !! And We Residents, THE TAXPAYERS Whose Money Was Being Used, WERE NOT ALLOWED To Obtain The Same Benefit As Were The HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS Who 'ORCHESTRATED THE DEAL' With Verizon !! It BENEFITTED THEM And THEIR FAMILIES ONLY !! (By The Way, That's Called CORRUPTION !!) Using OUR TAXPAYER DOLLARS !! In Hamburg. Lovely !!
I TOOK EXCEPTION To The 'Verizon Arrangement' That HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS Had Entered Into As Well As A Number Of OTHER 'IMPROPRIETIES' Involving TAXPAYER DOLLARS That I Was Either Already Aware Of Or Had 'Stumbled Upon'. As A Responsible Hamburg City Resident (And A Former Hamburg City Official Myself), I Contacted The Office Of The MINNESOTA STATE AUDITOR.To Report What Was Taking Place By HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS Using TAXPAYER DOLLARS !! Based On The Information That I Provided To The STATE AUDITOR'S OFFICE About Some Of What Was/Is Taking Place Involving HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS and USING TAXPAYER DOLLARS, I'm Pleased To Report To You That THE CITY IS NO LONGER IN THE 'CELL PHONE BUSINESS'; The Contract Between The CITY OF HAMBURG And Verizon WAS CANCELLED MAY 24TH AND NO LONGER EXISTS And, HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS Are NO LONGER USING IT'S DEBIT CARD That Gave CITY OFFICIALS DIRECT ACCESS To TAXPAYER DOLLARS !! Yes, Indeed; The MINNESOTA STATE AUDITOR DOES HAVE AUTHORITY Over 'MUNICIPAL SPENDING' !! (See NORTH ST. PAUL CITY MANAGER RESIGNS; STATE AUDITOR PROBES CITY'S FINANCES AMID SPENDING QUESTIONS.) To See My Initial Letter To The MINNESOTA STATE AUDITOR, And Their Response To The PUBLIC OFFICIALS Of The CITY OF HAMBURG, PLEASE CLICK HERE. Because Of The Magnitude And Amount Of The Information Being Disclosed On This Website, HAMBURG RESIDENTS SHOULD DEMAND A Similar THOROUGH & COMPLETE AUDIT Of The QUESTIONABLE SPENDING of TAXPAYER DOLLARS By HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS !!
Previous information regarding the population of Hamburg as 503 and the population of Norwood Young America as 3,765 was initially received from www.worldpopulationreview.com. However, I have now received updated (and more accurate) information from the METROPOLITAN COUNCIL regard the population of both Cities. According to a August 17, 2021 letter sent to the City of Hamburg by their Agency, as of April 1, 2020 the City of Hamburg had 228 housing units, 219 households and a population of 566. According to the Norwood Young America City Hall on November 19, 2021, their City had a population of 3,863 residents.
Therefore, based on this new and updated information just received, the 'summary' of Covid-19 information in these two cities has been updated accordingly.
As always, the BEST PLACE to get current and updated information about the 'status' of COVID-19 in Carver County, is from their COVID-19 'DASHBOARD' Website.

Check out other PUBLIC OFFICIALS that are also 'causing problems' because of their actions & stupidity: A Kanabec County Judge criticized a local town board, calling their actions the township took against local residents “unreasonable and absurd". That Judge should come to Hamburg & Carver County.
And, EVEN THOUGH the Judge ruled AGAINST the township, the town Board Members are considering APPEALING, at TAXPAYER EXPENSE, the Judge's ruling !! They, too; think that there's a 'bottomless pit' of TAXPAYER DOLLARS.

JEREMY GRUENHAGEN
When I Catch Someone Lying, They've LOST MY TRUST Forever !!
In The Summer Of 2020,
HAMBURG MAYOR
CHRISTOPHER LUND
Decided That He Wanted To Abandon The City Of Hamburg Hoping, Instead, To Become
Elected As A Carver County Commissioner.
Based On What I've Observed About Lund As Not Only A Hamburg City Councilmember, But Now, Also As Hamburg's Mayor, I Sent A Letter To Lund Seeking Answers To Some Concerns I Had About His Suitability, AND QUALIFICATIONS, As A
Carver County Commissioner.
True To His Form,
LUND NEVER RESPONDED !!
Fortunately, For The Residents Of
Carver County, Lund's Election Efforts
FAILED MISERABLY
And He Was SOUNDLY
DEFEATED; Having Received
ONLY 14 VOTES
From Hamburg Residents.
(And, I'd Never Before Heard Of A 'Political Aspirant' Using A "GO FUND ME" Account To Finance
Their Election To Public Office.)
Lund Also Apparently Feels That It Is
Not Necessary To Respond To The Concerns Of Citizens; Lund Has NEVER Responded To My
This Instance Was
NO DIFFERENT !!
In January I requested, and received, an
UPDATED AMOUNT OF
TAXPAYER DOLLARS
that have been spent on the current lawsuit against the City of Hamburg as detailed on this Website. But then later, I was advised that according to the Hamburg City Hall as of January 1 , 2022, the HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL
had really only
SPENT $66,043.91*
of your (our)
HARD EARNED TAXPAYER DOLLARS !!
*This City has advised that this amount is a 'corrected ' amount & that the previously information provided was incorrect due to to incorrect 'entries'
that were 'not coded' properly.
Of course, in view of what I've already 'uncovered' taking place in the City by its PUBLIC OFFICIALS, couplef with my previously being a City Councilmember,
I'm now 'suspicious' about ANYTHING that
I am now told 'by the City' !
Whatever the amount, you may be assured that the OUTRAGEOUS AMOUNT OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS ALREADY PAID to 'contract;' KELLY DOHM's Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN is only GOING TO INCREASE!!
NOTE: The CITY OF HAMBURG is now REFUSING TO PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION about how TAXPAYER DOLLARS ARE BEING SPENT !!
PLA-MOR BALLROOM * GLENCOE, MN. EVENT SCHEDULE
Even While I Was STILL A Member Of The
HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL
(2013 - 2017)
I HAD CONCERNS
ABOUT WHAT WAS TAKING
PLACE BY THE OTHER
HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS !!
Please 'Click' On The Image On The Right Above To Enlarge The Placard That I Had Posted On My HAMBURGMINNESOTA.COM

Also, In order to accommodate the publishing
of the recently discovered information
described above, it was necessary
to 'move' the summary of my
'accomplishments' while I was a
Hamburg City Council Member,
to another location within
this Website.
City Council Meetings Are SUPPOSED To Be Recorded, Yet; Anyone Attempting To Listen To Those Recordings Is Unable To Do So Because Of The VERY POOR,DISTORTED, UNRELIABLE GARBLED AUDIO. This UNACCEPTABLE AUDIO QUALITY Has Been Called To The City's Attention NUMBEROUS TIMES But CITY OFFICIALS Have INTENTIONALLYREFUSED
TO TAKE ANY ACTION To IMPROVE The QUALITY Of These Recordings. The Only Possible Explanation Is Because The City DOESN'T WANT RESIDENTS To Have The ABILITY TO
LISTEN To Previous City Council Proceedings So They Will Know What's Taking Place In The City !! They couldn't have found a better way to accomplish that surreptitiously !!
(Remember I, Too; Was Once A Hamburg City Council Member For FOUR YEARS !!) To Better Understand What I'm Referring To, PLEASE CLICK HEAR !!
This
CAN'T
Be
Good !!
I'M AVAILABLE ON BOTH
and at WWW.THEDELTASHOW.COM
FOLKS; YOU READ ABOUT IT HERE FIRST !!
The term of the Hamburg Mayor EXPIRES at the end of this year. DON'T BE SURPRISED if you see a ''Familiar Name' on the ballot this fall as a candidate seeking to be elected to REPLACE the ineffective, egotistical person that currently holds that position !! TWO City Council positions ALSO will be 'open' this fall.
ACCORDING TO THE CITY, former Hamburg City Councilmember, Jason Buckentin (GOOD CHOICE) was
appointed to fill the remainder of the term vacated by
the death of Councilmember Scott Feltmann.
As a result, former Mayor RICHARD MALZ will now be 'available' to seek election to Mayor in this fall's election to DEFEAT the current egotistical 'default Mayor' (nobody else filed for the position)
CHRIS LUND. While Malz and I had our 'differences' during
my term on the City Council, between the two, Malz
is a FAR BETTER CHOICE to lead the City. (And I'd ALSO 'hold
HIS feet to the fire' for his actions as I do for everyone else !!)
DEFEATING Lund and DUMPING the OVER-PRICED current 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM (who BLOCKS REQUESTS for PUBLIC INFORMATION from a taxpaying City resident), Hamburg would be a better (and LESS EXPENSIVE)
place for City residents to call 'home'.
17 DAYS AFTER I Made My 'Information Request', I Received A Partial Response From The City of Hamburg Regarding The PUBLIC INFORMATION That I've Been Trying To Obtain And Post On This Website So That (Interested) HAMBURG TAXPAYERS (And Others) Can Have Some Idea Of What's Taking Place In The City And How Our HARD EARNED TAXPAYER DOLLARS Are Being Spent. To See
My Initial January 2, 2022 Request,
'RUNNING UP THE BILL'
As everyone who visits this Website knows, UPON THE ADVICE OF 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM, of the Waconia based law firm of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, 'in concert' with the HAMBURG CITY CLERK, the City initially BLOCKED or at least delayed, one or more of my 'information requests'; a 'SCAM' perpetrated to allow 'deeper digging' Into the pockets
of HAMBURG TAXPAYERS !!
Also by her 'stonewalling' my January 2nd requests sent to the City seeking PUBLIC
INFORMATION, DOHM not only brought DISCREDIT to her profession AND HER LAW FIRM, she also INTENTIONALLY
VIOLATED MINNESOTA STATUTE 609.43, MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC
OFFICER OR EMPLOYEE, as well as RULE 8.4 of the MINNESOTA RULES OF LAWYER PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT !!

And The 'Hits' Just Keep On Coming !!
You're Looking At & Reading Just ONE Of The
MANY REASONS Why This Website Is So POPULAR !!
The Webpage Shown Here Is One That I Maintained During My Term As A Hamburg City Council Member (2013-2016) And Documents The PUBLIC SUPPORT That I Received When I Started 'ASKING QUESTIONS' Of The Other PUBLIC OFFICIALS Of Hamburg About "What The Hell Is Going On?"
My 'Inquiring Mind' OBVIOUSLY 'STUCK A NERVE' Of The Other City PUBLIC OFFICIALS And ALL OF THEM Spent The Rest My Term Trying UNSUCCESSFULLY To Force Me To Resign My City Council Position. Of Course, I Didn't Succumb To Their DASTARDLY And UNDERHANDED EFFORTS. The Fact That The Other HAMBURG PUBLIC OFFICIALS WASTED $50,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS On The FUTILE EFFORTS To UNSEAT ME, Showed Just How Desperate They Were/Are To Keep Hamburg Residents From Knowing The True And Corrects Facts About What's Taking Place With Hamburg's PUBLIC OFFICIALS, What They're 'Doing' And Their Unacceptable LACK OF INTEGRITY !! Though Most Of The PUBLIC OFFICIALS In The City Of Hamburg Have Now Changed, The City's 'Tactics' REMAIN THE SAME Because Of Three PUBLIC OFFICIAL 'HOLDOVERS';FORMER HAMBURG CITY COUNCILMEMBERS, And Now CURRENT MAYOR CHRIS LUND, HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN And, Of Course, 'Contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM Of The Waconia Based Law Firm Of MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN.
It Is Also SPECIFICALLY NOTED That Newly Elected Hamburg City Council Member Jessica Weber is SPECIFICALLY EXEMPTED From Having ANY Involvement Regarding My Reporting And Allegations Of What's Taken Place Prior To 2020 By The PUBLIC OFFICIALS Of The CITY OF HAMBURG.Virtually ALL Of What You're Reading About On My Website About The City Of Hamburg Took Place Before Councilmember Weber Was Elected To The Hamburg City Council. THANKS To EVERYONE That Has Voiced Your 'Support' For Me, My Websites And For What My Website & I Represent !!

Internet When You Get Sick !!) CONTACT WITH THE PUBLIC and NOT BEING TOTALLY VACCINATED,
is morally REPREHENSIBLE and TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE !!
HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS have REFUSED to provide information about their immunization
status or whether City Officials and Employees are/have been infected, or hospitalized,

"WHY Are HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS
NOT ACCOUNTABLE For Their Actions ?"
It's really QUITE SIMPLE: DOHM has a 'cozy arrangement' (nod-nod; wink-wink) with the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE that 'SHIELDS' HER FROM
PROSECUTION of any of her 'untoward' acts and misdeeds. DOHM basically has the civilian
form of 'diplomatic immunity'.
SMELL ANYTHING YET ??
Just as with 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM
it's the civilian form of 'diplomatic immunity' for CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY MARK METZ and his 'DEPUTY' PETER IVY.
This Webpage has 'exposed' what we've ALREADY WITNESSED and how effective those 'SCAMS' that they've so cleverly devised & disguised, really are !!!
I'm Also Trying To Understand WHY, Other Than To Personally Embarrass
Them, What Useful Purpose Is Accomplished By The City Recently
PUBLICLY PUBLISHING the NAMES OF CITY RESIDENTS having PAST DUE WATER/SEWER UTILITY BILLS ??!!
WHAT WAS THE CITY'S ' MOTVE' IN DOING SO ??

MARK METZ
Carver County Attorney
With An AMERICAN FLAG In The Background And
KNOWING What's Taken Place In HIS OFFICE, HOW Can This Man Have The Cojones To
CONTINUE TO COLLECT CARVER COUNTY
TAXPAYER DOLLARS ??
Metz Claimed That He Had
NO AUTHORITY TO INVESTIGATE
Allegations Of
MISCONDUCT OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS OF THE
CITY OF HAMBURG !!
To See My Written Communications With The Carver County Attorney's Office & Their Ludicrous 'Excuses', PLEASE CLICK HERE.
IN KENTUCKY, IT'S A FELONY CHARGE FOR
MINNESOTA ATTORNEYS
GO UNPUNISHED !!
In a Kentucky case, former Brunswick Judicial Circuit District Attorney/Prosecutor Jackie Johnson was charged with VIOLATION OF OATH OF OFFICE (a FELONY) and with MISCONDUCT (a MISDEMEANOR) for using her position to discourage (police from) making arrests.
THEIR OATH OF OFFICE !!
IN KENTUCKY, IT'S A FELONY CHARGE FOR AN ATTORNEY TO VIOLATE THEIR OATH OF OFFICE !!
In MINNESOTA, ATTORNEYS Go UNPUNISHED !!
In the Kentucky case, former Brunswick Judicial Circuit District Attorney/Prosecutor Jackie Johnson was charged with VIOLATION OF OATH OF OFFICE (a FELONY) and with MISCONDUCT (a MISDEMEANOR) for using her position to discourage (police from) making arrests (in a homicide).
But, GEORGIA ATTORNEY GENERAL CHRIS CARR , whose Office is prosecuting the case against Johnson, sought the misconduct investigation of Johnson last year saying the first outside prosecutor he appointed to handle the case had been recommended by Johnson, who never disclosed that she had already asked that prosecutor to advise police in the immediate aftermath of the killing.
Johnson lost reelection last year, blaming the controversy of her actions, for her defeat.
Let's all hope that in the 2022 election, 'karma' visits the CITY OF HAMBURG as well as the Offices of the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY and the MINNESOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL !!
Maybe, U.S. ATTORNEY MERRICK GARLAND will 'make a trip to Minnesota'.
By her DESPICABLE, ARROGANT, ABHORRENT CONDUCT & BEHAVIOR, DOHN is ALSO an EMBARRASSMENT to the RESIDENTS OF HAMBURG and is BRINGING DISCREDIT to our City's IMAGE
& REPUTATION !! And the HAMBURG CITY
COUNCIL thinks that's ACCEPTABLE !!
SMELL ANYTHING ??
Something On This Website Was Either Added To, Deleted From Or Otherwise Modified On February 23, 2022
AN ATTORNEY
TO VIOLATE
Similarly, because 'DEPUTY' CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER IVY is a MEMBER
of the OVERSIGHT BOARD
of the OFFICE OF
LAWYER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY, the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE ALSO has a 'cozy arrangement' (nod-nod; wink-wink) with the STATE AGENCY that is CHARGED
WITH UPHOLDING INTEGRITY
OF MINNESOTA LAWYERS; the 0FFICE OF
As already PROVEN BY 'OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS', that 'cozy arrangement' by the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEYS OFFICE 'SHIELDS' THEM, FROM ANY DISCIPLINARY ACTION'
for inappropriate & unethical actions.

Olde Tyme &
Variety Music
Internet Show Heard Five Times A Week Exclusively On:
It's taken me
OVER TWO YEARS
to 'uncover' what's actually been taking place and 'going on' with the
PUBLIC OFFICIALS
of the
CITY OF HAMBURG
& the
CARVER COUNTY
ATTORNEY'S
OFFICE
and who all is involved, but I don't 'give up' easily !!
They
ALL BELONG IN JAIL
And They
ALL SHOULD HAVE
THEIR LAW
LICENSES REVOKED
Because Of What They've Done !!
Additionally, PUBLIC OFFICIALS trying to EXPLOIT and TAKING ADVANTAGE of a
78+ year old CITY/COUNTY RESIDENT is DISGUSTING !!
(It's ALSO DISCRIMINATION !!)
STAY TUNED !!
In light of 'INCONTROVERTIBLE & CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE' AGAINST THEM, it's going to be VERY INTERESTING to see what 'legal gymnastics' these unethical 'PUBLIC SERVANTS' employ to AGAIN facilitate 'escaping' scrutiny from the
OFFICE OF LAWYER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY; an INEFFECTIVE State Agency that is DIRECTLY RESPONSIBLE to the MINNESOTA SUPREME COURT.
By the selfish, unethical, immoral, illegal,sanctimonious and manipulative acts of a 'handful' of lawyers & other 'PUBLIC SERVANTS, coupled with the GROSS NEGLIGENCE and INEFFICIENCY
of the STATE AGENCY that is SUPPOSED
to HOLD LAWYERS ACCOUNTABLE
for their actions, the
MINNESOTA SUPREME COURT's
STELLAR IMAGE
has been SEVERLY TARNISHED !!
And, of course; this 'civilian form' of 'diplomatic immunity' has, MUCH TO THEIR DELIGHT, 'trickled down' to the PUBLIC OFFICIALS of the CITY OF HAMBURG !!
The 'end result' is that much to the DETRIMENT OF TAXPAYERS, PUBLIC OFFICIALS ARE NOT able to be HELD ACCOUNTABLE for any of their
(criminal) actions or 'misdeeds' !!
This civilian form of 'diplomatic immunity' should more aptly be called what it is;
CORRUPTION !!
(Please CLICK HERE For The Definition)
Also, see ATTORNEY GENERAL KEITH ELLISON'S 'INVOLVEMENT'; PLEASE CLICK HERE.
Watch for the launch of my newest Website;
www.PublicOfficialsBehavingBadly.com
If you'd like to know more about me,
When I was a Hamburg City Councilmember, (2013-2017) I RETURNED ALL of my HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL 'wages' TO THE CITY the FIRST year, DONATED ALL of my SECOND year's 'wages' to the HAMBURG FIRE DEPARTMENT RELIEF ASSCIATION and used my 'wages' for my THIRD & FOURTH years to pay my attorney's fees to ensure that I was properly dealing with the underhanded tactics of the other HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS in their trying to FORCE ME OFF THE CITY COUNCIL !! (You'll recall I WON THAT CHALLENGE against the other HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS, CLICK HERE to see the letter that my attorney sent to the City.) NEEDLESS TO SAY, the City was WRONG AGAIN; and I SERVED AND COMPLETED my ENTIRE FOUR YEAR TERM while the City 'PISSED AWAY' $50,000.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS IN LAWYER'S FEES to the Waconia based law firm of 'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM; MELCHERT, HUBERT & SJODIN, trying to 'prove' an 'UNPROVEABLE POINT' !! 'Contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM is a HORRIBLE, VINDICTIVE PERSON !! And she 'fits right in' with the rest of the other CITY OFFICIALS !!
What the sanctimonious HAMBURG MAYOR and CITY COUNCILMEMBERS REFUSE TO ACCEPT Is That They ALL Are RESPONSIBLE, And LIABLE, For Whatever Takes Place In The City By An Employee When PUBLIC OFFICIAL MISCONDUCT, Or Other CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, Occurs. Their FAILURE TO ACT, As REQUIRED BY MINNESOTA STATE LAW, Is ALSO A VIOLATION OF THE LAW And Subjects EACH Of Them, PERSONALLY To Up To ONE YEAR IMPRISONMENT, A FINE OF UP TO $3,000.00; Or BOTH !! (And Most Likely Would Be REMOVED FROM OFFICE !!) The LAWYERS Involved, Could, Of Course, ALSO Be 'CENSURED' Or 'DISBARRED' Because Of What's Taken Place And Their 'INVOLVEMENT' !!
Now; You See WHY Everything Is Being 'COVERED UP" !! They ALL Have A LOT TO 'LOSE' Because Of THEIR INVOLVEMENT In WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE In The City Of Hamburg !! I'm CERTAIN That NONE OF THEM EVER THOUGHT, Even For A Moment, That Their DEVIOUS ACTS & DISHONESTY Would Ever Be Discovered !! And I'm ALSO CERTAIN They All THINK That They Have 'IMMUNITY' FROM PROSECUTION' Because Of Their 'BUDDIES' In The CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE !!
JUST SEVEN (OF MANY) EXAMPLES OF
UNACCEPTABLE CONDUCT OF PUBLIC OFFICIALS
And Being LESS THAN HONEST & 'UPFRONT' With The
OFFICE OF LAWYER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY !!
1.) CONSPIRING To INTENTIONALLY FABRICATE & PREPARE OFFICIAL CITY
DOCUMENTS That KNOWINGLY Contained FALSE INFORMATION !!
2.) REFUSAL To PROVIDE PUBLIC INFORMATION About Past/Present COVID-19 STATUS
Of CITY OFFICIALS Who, Daily; DEAL WITH THE PUBLIC !! (To See The City's Response
& My Reply, PLEASE CLICK HERE.)
3.) REFUSAL To PROVIDE PUBLIC INFORMATION Regarding Explanations Of How
TAXPAYER DOLLARS ARE SPENT and WHY !!
4.) REFUSAL To PROVIDE DETAILS Of, JUSTIFICATION For, AMOUNT Of TAXPAYER
DOLLARS SPENT And TYPE OF 'ENFORCEMENT ACTION' TAKEN AGAINST A CITY
RESIDENT !! (To See The City's Response & My Reply, PLEASE CLICK HERE.)
5.) HOW, But More Importantly WHY, Is HAMBURG 'CONTRACT' ATTORNEY KELLY C.
DOHM So DEEPLY INVOLVED In Everything Listed Above That's Taken Place ?? (See
'RUNNING UP THE BILL' above/left and also PLEASE CLICK HERE.)
6.) WHY Was The FORMAL MISCONDUCT & ETHICS COMPLAINT That I Filed With The
OFFICE OF LAWYER'S PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY Against CARVER COUNTY
MARK METZ & 'DEPUTY' COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER IVY 'DISMISSED SO QUICKLY'
WITHOUT ANY 'INVESTIGATION' And NOT SO MUCH As Even A SIMPLE TELEPHONE
CALL To Me ??
7.) How were CARVER COUNTY MARK METZ & 'DEPUTY' COUNTY ATTORNEY PETER
IVY able to 'hornswoggle' the OFFICE OF LAWYERS PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILTY and PREVENT INVESTIGATIONS of 'ETHICS VIOLATIONS' and 'LAWYER
MISCONDUCT' from taking place against BOTH of them as well as BLOCK SIMILAR
INVESTIGATIONS of 'ETHICS VIOLATIONS' and 'LAWYER MISCONDUCT' of 'contract'
I've Discovered The WHY, And The HOW; The WHAT That Took Place Will
BLOW YOUR SOCKS OFF !!
Your Comments About This Website Or Any Of Its Content Are ALWAYS WELCOME !!
Please E-mail Them To [email protected]
Meanwhile, HAMBURG CITY
OFFICIALS WASTED $50,000.00
TAXPAYER DOLLARS attempting, UNSUCCESSFULLY, to FORCE me
off of the Hamburg City Council !!
And it ALL was precipitated by the
HAMBURG CLERK/TREASURER,
JEREMY GRUENHAGEN. (Check
back to HEAR when it ALL began !!)
GRUENHAGEN is TRULY a
The HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER, MAYOR RICHARD MALZ, the other CITY
COUNCIL MEMBERS as well as
'contract' HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLY C. DOHM, were ALL SO DESPERATE to 'get rid of me' because of the 'questions
I was asking', that they EVEN FILED
A FALSE POLICE REPORT
against me as (just) ONE of their
MANY ATTEMPTS !!
(Wait 'til you read the content of the
45 PAGE transcript of my 2 HOUR
'EYE-OPENING INTERROGATION''
with a Detective from the McLeod
County Sheriff's Office !!)
Of course, much to the dismay of the HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS, I was TOTALLY EXHONORATED !!
Still, in an attempt to 'INTIMIDATE' me,
CITY OFFICIALS BANNED ME from
ALL CITY PROPERTY and
ORDERED that I SURRENDER
ALL 'CITY KEYS' issued to me !!
THESE are the kinds of ruthless, vicious, 'dirty', underhanded PUBLIC OFFICIAL OGRES that are 'ruining'
the CITY OF HAMBURG.
One last thing: We've all heard the
term 'hostile work environment';
GOOD LUCK trying to HIRE A
REPLACEMENT for the City's PUBLIC WORKS EMPLOYEE RETIRING in
MAY 2022 !! What's described above is what the NEXT PUBLIC WORKS EMPLOYEE will have to deal with !!
Who'd even want to work in such a
'toxic environment' ?? Look at the
BLATANT and also COVERT ACTIONS described above that the City Officials committed toward me; simply
because they didn't 'like' me.
And; I was an ELECTED OFFICIAL !!
They simply DON'T 'play fair' !!
With everything that's taken place in the City
of Hamburg that you're reading about on this Website, (AND MORE), Hamburg is sitting on the proverbial 'powder keg' because of the reprehensible conduct
of its PUBLIC OFFICIALS !!
One last thing: To see what others have said about me, my service to the residents of Hamburg as a City Council Member,
and yes; EVEN about my Websites,
Check Out Some Of The RUDE, INAPPROPRIATE and downright VULGAR FACEBOOK 'posts' of some HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS (BEFORE THEY DELETE THEM); here's one (and, yes; I copied MANY MORE from their Facebook accounts!!) that was posted by

THANK YOU FOR VISITING WWW.HAMBURGMINNESOTA.COM !! Launched In 2007, This Website Is Hosted By A RETIRED LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER & DEPUTY SHERIFF who is also a FORMER HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL MEMBER (2013-2017) And A CURRENT CITY RESIDENT. This Website Is About A Small Minnesota City Of About 560 Residents Located In Carver County About 45 Miles Southwest Of Minneapolis. Where Possible And When Practical, Supporting Documentation And 'Evidence' Will Continue To Provide Validation Of Information That Appears On This Website. Hamburg 'City Government' (Such As It Is), Consists Of Four Elected Council Members, And Four City Employees; Two Full-Time; Two Part-Time. The Current Hamburg Mayor, Christopher Lund, Is A 'Real Beauty' And A Former City Council Member, Who Apparently Believes That It's Unnecessary To Respond To Issues Called To His Attention, By A City Resident, Regarding What's Been Taking Place In Hamburg Over The Years And Now; During His Current Term As Mayor. To Circumvent Lund's Negligent Deficiency And So That Residents Can Know, And Begin To Realize What's Taking Place In Their City, Those Unanswered Letters I've Sent To Lund Over The Years Are Now Available On This Website. Residents Will Want To Check Back Often As This Website Is Frequently Updated On A Regular Basis. If you'd like to KNOW MORE ABOUT ME, PLEASE CLICK HERE.
IN THEIR LATEST COVERT ATTEMPT TO INTENTIONALLY SUPPRESS PUBLIC INFORMATION FROM RESIDENTS THAT WOULD NORMALLY APPEAR ON THIS
VERY POPULAR WEBSITE, THE CITY OF HAMBURG HAS NOW STATED THAT
THEY WILL NOT PROVIDE ANY MORE PUBLIC INFORMATION UNLESS I
AGREE TO PAY THE CITY OF HAMBURG $30.00/HOUR, IN ADVANCE,
TO OBTAIN THAT PUBLIC INFORMATION !!
The State Auditor's Office is already VERY MUCH FAMILIAR with HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS; ESPECIALLY after learning of
"THE GREAT HAMBURG CELLPHONE CAPER" that INVOLVED TAXPAYER DOLLARS to PROVIDE DISCOUNTED
CELLPHONE SERVICE, but ONLY TO HAMBURG CITY OFFICIALS and THEIR FAMILIES !!
THIS LATEST TACTIC TO WITHHOLD PUBLIC INFORMATION, CITY RESIDENTS
SHOULD NOW DEMAND A COMPLETE EXTERNAL AUDIT OF THE CITY'S
FINANCES by the MINNESOTA OFFICE OF THE STATE AUDITOR !!

I always knew WHAT they were doing, WHY they were doing
it & WHO was involved. I also
had an pretty good IDEA of
HOW they were ABLE to do it.
But I just need to
'GET THE EVIDENCE'
about what was taking place.
Then, at 4:30 AM one morning
Now; LET'S TALK about the
GROSS MISCONDUCT
of and by
HAMBURG
CITY OFFICIALS
aided and abetted by the subsequent
"COVERT COVER-UP"
and their
"COLLUSION"
with
CARVER COUNTY
ATTORNEY MARK METZ
and his
'DEPUTY' CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY
PETER IVY:
Receives
$155,376.00 TAXPAYER DOLLARS/YEAR !!
"Dick, I have always known you as an honest man. I am sorry that this
is happening to you at the hands of deceitful and immoral people.
I hope they pay for what they do to people."
"Great find for the citizens of Hamburg. YOU ARE AMAZING."
"Holy Cow. Good job. When Delta speaks, a person better listen."
Good ALWAYS triumphs over evil."
"I never thought that Hamburg Minnesota had so many rotten politicians
after reading about what's been going on there on your www.HamburgMinnesota.com Website. Disgusting !!"
"Hamburg doesn't seem like the place to live."
"At one time I thought the common criminal was the lowest form of
the human species, however; due to the actions of elected and
appointed government officials over the last few decades,
they have become the number one of the lowest form."
"Your Website is full of great content and has a lot of flair to it."
"I pray this will be investigated and everyone will be brought out."
"They do not do anything to generate revenue except raise taxes, nothing else, they are to busy playing big shot with our taxpayer dollars."
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
"In my opinion, Kelly Dohm, along with Melchert law firm, are some of the
most immoral, conniving and most distrustful people I have ever dealt with."
"Good job speaking out, Mr. Odoms."
"Lots of interesting content on your page. I listened
to your interview with Judge Fahey, great stuff."
"I'M IMPRESSED !! I've been reading over your
Website, Dick; IT'S INCREDIBLE !!
"I know you have things to do and it looks like you are filling up your time."
"I have been looking over your website and what a mess your city appears
to be with all the political games that are being played. I live near Chicago
which is the most corrupt city in the US. It looks like your little town is
trying to play big boy games. It is amazing how some city officials
think just because they are voted into office that gives them the
freedom to do anything they want to do at taxpayer’s expense."
"These are the reasons that so many people do NOT trust politicians
where a few bad apples screw it up for all the others. Take care….
Wear your mask and wash your hands often. Hopefully Wayzata,
where I grew up, has not gone downhill like Hamburg. I will
spread the word on your web site around this area."
"They are on the run Mr. Odoms, nice job!"
"Got to tell you Mr. Odoms, you have alot going on, on your website. I see that Grudenhagen admits to lying and that the attornys keep billing the City and Grudehagen keeps paying them, but why? Because they think they can steal from us? I am not seeing what anyone is gaining unless they all just are splitting up the money we the taxpayers pay. Wait til Trebesch officially wins his case, you know what that is going to do; create a liability that guess who pays for." (NOTE: The 'Grudenhagen' that the Website visitor refers to is, in fact, HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN; who, incidentially, DOESN'T EVEN LIVE IN THE CITY !!)
"It's easier to fool people than to convince them
that they have been fooled." Mark Twain
"Got your flyer yesterday. You've been busy. Way to shake things up !!"
When, will this 'POT' called HAMBURG, finally BOIL OVER ??

PUBLIC CORRUPTION
FBI's TOP INVESTIGATIVE PRIORITY
It can affect everything from how well our borders are secured and our neighborhoods protected to how verdicts are handed down in courts to how public infrastructure such as roads and schoolsare built.
It also takes a significant toll on the public’s pocketbooks by siphoning off tax dollars—it is estimated that public corruption costs the U.S. government and the public billions of dollars each year.
The FBI is uniquely situated to combat corruption, with the skills and capabilities to run complex undercover operations and surveillance. Among other areas, the Bureau’s Public Corruption Program focuses on investigating violations of federal law by public officials at the federal, state, and local levels of government; The FBI is uniquely situated to combat corruption, with the skills and capabilities to run complex undercover operations and surveillance. Among other areas, the Bureau’s Public Corruption Program focuses on investigating violations of federal law by public officials at the federal, state, and local levels of government.
No other law enforcement agency has attained the kind of success the FBI has achieved in combating corruption. This success is due largely to the cooperation and coordination from a number of federal, state, local,
and tribal law enforcement agencies to combat public corruption. These partnerships include, but are not limited to the Department of Justice, Agency Offices of Inspector General; law enforcement
agencies’ internal affairs divisions; federal, state and local law enforcement and regulatory investigative agencies; and state and county prosecutor’s offices.
