German term or phrase: amtsfrei
Gezeigt wird hier die Verwaltungsstruktur der Bundesrepublik.:

Bund
Bundesländer
Stadtstaaten
Regierungsbezirke
Kreisfreie Städte
Landkreise
Ämter
(Amtsfreie) Kreisangehörige Gemeinden
(Amtsangehörige/Kreisangehörige Gemeinden)

Was bedeutet „amtsfreie“ kreisangehörige Gemeinde??
Im Sinne von "unabhängig" gebe es hier ja einen Widerspruch (kreisfrei = independent). Weiß jemand, was das mit dieser Ämtergeschichte hier auf sich hat?

Explanation:
Landkreise, Ämter und Gemeinden
Mecklenburg-Vorpommern besteht derzeit aus 12 Landkreisen und sechs kreisfreien Städten. Die kleinste Einheit der kommunalen Selbstverwaltung sind die Gemeinden, zu denen laut Kommunalverfassung auch die Städte zählen. Die meisten Gemeinden sind in Ämtern zusammengeschlossen. Ämter erledigen die Verwaltungsgeschäfte für ihre Mitgliedsgemeinden. 24 Städte und zehn Gemeinden in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern sind amtsfrei. Darüber hinaus gibt es 811 kreisangehörige Gemeinden und 79 Ämter (Stand: 1. Juni 2006).

Administrative Districts, Departments and Communities

Today Mecklenburg-Vorpommern consists of 12 administrative districts and six self-administrating cities. The smallest units of local government administration are the communities, which, according to the constitution of municipal government, also include the towns. Most of the communities are associated in departments. These departments settle the administrative matters for their member communities. 24 towns and 10 smaller communities in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern do not belong to such a department. Furthermore, there are 811 communities which belong to an administrative district and 79 departments (status quo: 1st June 2006).
