What a hero truthteller. One of the bravest gals I know.....and I know quite a few.

Not only do these "not so good ol white boys" need shredding, they need to be locked up where they belong. They may all be headed for their trial at the Hague soon.

What's Stopping Me.....A.O.C. a very clever move.

A good president, and his name isn't Schlump

Little Falls Convention and Vistors Bureau(Kris VonBerge) acts as fiscal agent for Shoppes of Little Falls(Susy Prosapio)

Shoppes of Little Falls is a privately owned business. Susy Prosapio owns it. Every vendor that sells their products there, must have a Mn sales tax ID. 

So why is the CVB, (a non profit funded with sales tax money collected by the city), acting as a fiscal agent for a private business. Is this Kris VonBerge playing favorites with Susy? Who approved this? The CVB board(councilor Raquel Lundberg/ president CVB board)??? Or did the city staff/council????

This is REALLY fishy. 

Is this even legal??  I will find out.

Oh I get it....marketing out front of the CVB. How cozy.

Jon Radermacher, Mayor Greg Zylka, Little Falls Lions, and Charlie Peterka

Why on earth is Jon Radermacher promoting Economic Development funded projects? Isn't that the mayor's role? Especially since Mayor Greg Zylka is the PRESIDENT of the EDA?

My guess is Jon is recruiting supporters for the upcoming TIF district modification public hearing on March 18th.  Those Lions folks will be counted if they show up to give a public hearing comment in favor and I will report back on here, who they were. Many of the Lions don't even live in the city, but that won't stop them from "going along to get along".

One other thing......why are only "certain" businesses being promoted?   That's called bias and is unfair to all the other well established or new "not promoted" smaller businesses.

Just plain wrong.

This Lions group is loaded with opportunity thieves.

What does this add up to? A poorly run city, spending MILLIONS of taxpayer money on corporate welfare.  This citys leaders are promoting "socialism for some."

NOTICE THAT MAYOR GREG ZYLKA reappointed known criminal Charlie Peterka to the Library Board. Is that the best private citizen he could muster for the position? Really?

Zylka told former Alderman Brian Crowder he would appoint him to that board. There is recorded proof. But the mayor doesn't keep his promises. He doesn't need to tell the truth, does he? Zylka's good at poor decision making. There is proof about all kinds of other ridiculous, discriminatory comments as well. I hold the evidence.

Much more on this in the future. An outside agency, a state group will get to the bottom of the ongoing investigation of discrimination. As usual, the law is on my side. I always get the proof.

There are laws that forbid discrimination.

I wonder who the next mayor will be? Certainly not Zylka.

And now there is solid evidence these drills are HARMING OUR KIDS..

Bipartisan bill introduced in Congress to end cruel HORSE SORING. Good, I hope to heck it passes.

https://blog.humanesociety.org/2019/01/bipartisan-bill-introduced-in-congress-to-end-cruel-horse-soring.html

This cruel and inhumane practice is just as stupid as tail docking and ear cropping in dogs.  Pathetic. Why not just appreciate and leave alone what nature created?   Money is the problem here.  The greed for money from these type of unjust practices.

EARL LEMIEUR property Beer Bellys Bar STILL ILLEGAL 1-24-19 Little Falls, Mn

What the heck is going on?  This electronic sign was NEVER ALLOWED in the Central Business District B-1, so why hasn't the city REMOVED IT?  And the sign overages should have been removed too.

Notice this post was JANUARY 24, 2019.

I reported since then, that the electronic sign was still running.

Then Tuesday May 7th, Ben Oleson writes me this....

Problem is, it wasn't removed at all.

Ben was AT CITY HALL ON MONDAY, MAY 6, 2019 so why didn't HE drive by Beer Belly's before writing that? He's paid almost 4K per month. For what? He can't even gain compliance from Earl LeMieur, in more than 3 YEARS NOW?  It's abundantly evident to me, he doesn't WANT to.

I drove by there this morning, because I figured it was a lie. Sure enough, it was. Here is my response.

I have had it with having to police the lazy city staff. Remember, when they WANT to enforce the sign ordinance they do. If it's me that is. I was given a warning letter in late fall 2011 and issued the ONLY CITATION in Little Falls history in early spring 2012.

This is sheer bias, because Earl has $$$$ AND they don't despise the sign content, like they do my signs.


No wonder the city of Little Falls is considering replacing Ben Oleson(Hometown Planning) for zoning administrator. Doug Stewart was better at the sign ordinance enforcement and tracking and he wasn't even paid more to do it.

This is pathetic. Ben Oleson's contract with the city should be terminated.....immediately.

Camp Ripley is likely polluting the entire Morrison County and beyond.

I wonder about the contaminant level at the Canteen Bar, Main Gate Bar and Grille, and the gas station directly across the road from Camp Ripleys msin gate. It's a mystery that this community isn't demanding water tests. Perhaps nobody wants to know.

ST. Gabriels Hospital, LFPD selective enforcement 12-7-18

Reported on 12-7-18 at   12:12 p.m.

 Took the police almost an hour to respond.

Here's the kicker.....CHI was given the right of way by the city in 2018, so the "No Parking by Police Order" signs should not have even been posted. CHI owns all if Cherry Avenue.  Taxpayer funded police were used to enforce a restricted parking zone that didn't even belong to the city. How classy is that?

Since then, the signs have been replaced with "No Parking, Tow Away Zone" ones.

My next question is....how can our taxpayer funded police be used to guard the helipad owned by a private corporation on THEIR PRIVATE PROPERTY?

Doesn't seem legit to me. I wonder how much $$$ that ends up to be each year?

It's your nickel.

Little Falls, Mn. Will dollar stores be the final nail in the city's coffin?

With the new Dollar General store to be built across highway 27 from Bethel Lutheran, the only locations in Little Falls not captured yet are the south and north sides of town.

Little Falls, Mn. The Can Man exposed. Ben Oleson/Greg Kimman/city staff job failure

The city still turned a blind eye to the Can Man's illegal receptacle/signs/flags at Waters Edge Park, all the way through 2018, until I complained multiple times and made it very public on this blog.

After a larger version was finally removed, this lawbreaker was allowed to place his tiny can receptacle on CITY PARK PROPERTY in Maple Island Park. Until I complained again, blogged about it, and it was then finally removed. 

Little Falls, Mn sign violations ORDER TO CORRECT-ADMINISTRATIVE VIOLATION

How come none of these businesses care about obeying the sign ordinance?

Earl Lemieur, UPDATED VIDEO 1-24-19Beer Belly's Bar, (previously Dam Bar) VIOLATES SIGN ORDINANCE again.

New updated video below 1-24-19 STILL IN VIOLATION.....ELECTRONIC SIGNS ARE NOT ALLOWED PERIOD IN B-1 CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT

 All photos and video taken 1-14-19

Here's the rundown...

Oct. 27, 2017 Earl gets warning letter of sign overages exceeding allowable amount of 50 sq ft per side if bldg.

Dec.12, 2017 second warning letter sent. States electronic sign installed in back is NOT allowed in B-1 Central Business District(formerly Historic District before the "We Support Our Troops" banner, was discovered illegally installed, paid for and maintained by city IN VIOLATION of the sign ordinance in 2011. 

Dec. 27, 2017 third warning letter sent mentioning the illegal electronic sign and sign overages on front and back(east/west) side if building. 

A YEAR LATER , both the illegal  electronic sign was back on, and overages on the front and back, were again in place, and Earl was told he had 10 days to remove the overages or face potential administrative civil penalty. 

The video below was 26 DAYS beyond that letter, and 16 DAYS PAST THE ALLOWED TIME TO CORRECT. 

So my question to Zoning Admin Ben Oleson and Public Works Director/Engineer Greg Kimman will be, was Earl cited for his violation?

Where are the protections for all others in other states that CommonSpirit will operate in? Like here in Little Falls, Mn?
