En route to a west-side grocery store, Bundgaard says he spied a big pile of dirt on a construction site that would help fill up those holes on the Crantz property. He admits he arranged with 4-J Excavating to dump the dirt on Crantz's land. When Lorimor's secretary refused access to the 4-J entourage, the supervisor phoned Bundgaard. Bundgaard rushed to the property and personally ordered that the materials be dumped. But, in doing so, the senator also might have violated Peoria ordinances.
Peoria laws prohibit the dumping of asphalt and concrete within city limits.
If the trucks contained such materials, Bundgaard would have been involved in the same illegal activity that Lorimor had gotten in trouble for. Of course, Bundgaard says the trucks contained only dirt, which is perfectly legal to use as fill. Constituent services, says Bundgaard. Bundgaard acted like an employee or agent for David Crantz again a few days later. This event is more troubling, because it suggests Bundgaard may have wanted to make some money off of Crantz.
