Eastern Carver County League of Woman Voters President Maria Moeller and vice president Molly Koivumaki explain the mechanics of how Minnesota has ended up with a primary in 2020 and what that means to Carver County voters. This is a slightly different episode format in that it was recorded as a presentation for the Rotary Club of Chaska at Hazeltine National Golf Club on Dec 12th. The questions are from various Rotary members. I apologize in advance for the audio quality but we wanted to get the content out there along with links to get more information. Visit www.

Bob is one of those special people whose impact is felt decades after he has been out of office. He was instrumental in defying Chaska's mission, purpose and vision that is still in use today. By defining where we were going to go and how we were going to operate, the city has become a model for responsible governance. He is one person who has left a mark on the community.

Mark Metz covers what his office does beyond criminal prosecution and how the attorneys approach both victims of crime as well as the defendants and their council. He also talks about electing people for jobs that are lower profile but yet incredibly important. He approaches his job with diligence.

Career lawman and relatively newly elected Sherriff Jason Kamerud talks about police work in 2019 and the department's values about how to treat people and the advantages of a central command center for Carver County communities. Jason is an interesting guy who is 100% committed to the citizens of Carver County.

Chaska Minnesota Mayor Mark Windschitl discusses some of the big changes happening and how officials and staff approach them. Mark is a decent guy trying to give back to his hometown. This is a wide ranging conversation and the time flew by.

Cindy Anderson discusses the Arts Consortium of Carver County and some the events they have scheduled. She also gives a brief history of the organization. She was very brave to be our 1st interview and we are grateful!
