About The
CITY OF HAMBURG, MINNESOTA 55339
.
The City Of Hamburg, Minnesota (Population 570) Is Unique Because It Probably Is The
ONLY CITY IN THE UNITED STATES
That Has The STIGMA Of RE-ELECTING
The CURRENT MAYOR Who Has Been
ARRESTED FOR DWI, FOUND GUILTY OF
CARELESS DRIVING & CONVICTED OF
DOMESTIC ASSAULT !!
TO SEE THE ACTUAL COURT DOCUMENTS; PLEASE CLICK HERE
HAMBURG RESIDENTS DESERVE ANSWERS &
EXPLANATIONS FROM THE CURRENT MAYOR;
NOT 'SKELETONS' !!
You Might Find Interesting; My 'EARLY REMEMBERANCES' Of  Chris Lund
When I Moved To Hamburg In March 2007.

First, Lund REALLY LIKED My (Initial) HAMBURG WEBSITE !! So Much So, In Fact, That He Asked Me
To Put A 'Link' On My HAMBURG WEBSITE To His Personal 'HAMBURG BLOG SPOT Post'.
I REFUSED; DIDN'T TRUST HIM THEN; DON'T TRUST HIM NOW !!

Second, Lund Approached Me And Wanted Me To 'Take Turns' With Him 'Spending The Day At City Hall' And 'Take Notes' So That 'We Could See What The City Clerk/Treasurer Really Does All Day'.
I REFUSED; DIDN'T TRUST HIM THEN; DON'T TRUST HIM NOW !! 

Lastly, I VIVIDLY Recall A 'CONTINGENT OF CITY OFFICIALS' Showing Up At My Door One Cold
Fall Night Asking Me To Use The Power & Popularity Of My HAMBURG WEBSITE To 'Block'
Lund From Being Elected In An Upcoming Election After It Became Known That He
Had Announced His Filing For A POSITION ON THE HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL !!
Again, I REFUSED; I DON'T LIVE MY LIFE THAT WAY !!

Any individual who raises as many 'RED FLAGS' as the current Mayor does, DEMANDS in-depth SCRUTINY of his past background, integrity and actions. As  a service to, and for the benefit of
my fellow Hamburg residents; I put my knowledge and experience with the  CRIMINAL
JUSTICE SYSTEM to work, and did some 'digging' Into the past of CHRIS LUND;
a person who FIRMLY BELIEVED he DESERVED to be re-elected in 2022
as the Mayor of Hamburg,  for ANOTHER FOUR YEAR TERM !!

Upon doing a simple 'cursory search' of COURT RECORDS, I was provided with MORE THAN ENOUGH INFORMATION for me to UNEQUIVOCALLY DETERMINE (as should Hamburg RESIDENTS) that LUND
IS WHOLLY UNSUITED to lead the City of Hamburg for ANOTHER FOUR YEARS
because of POOR LEADERSHIP, DECEPTION, LACK OF INTEGRITY,
WASTEFUL & EXCESSIVE SPENDING and NO ACCOUNTABILITY !!
By CHRIS LUND being victorious, Hamburg residents are GUARANTEED of ANOTHER
FOUR YEARS OF MORE SECRECY, MORE DECEPTION, MORE INCOMPETANCE, CONTINUED DISCORD, HIGH TAXES,
and ADDITIONAL LAWSUITS !!
My PUBLIC LETTER To HAMBURG MAYOR CHRISTOPHER M. LUND Seeking EXPLANATIONS & ANSWERS About
The 'CORRUPTION' and 'GROSS MISCONDUCT' Of  HAMBURG PUBLIC OFFICIALS That I've UNCOVERED
Is NOW AVAILABLE At The Bottom Portion Of This Webpage.
As You Are About To Read,
THE HAMBURG MAYOR HAS MORE
'BAGGAGE' THAN AMTRAC !!
(And The CITY OF HAMBURG Thinks That's O.K. !!)

The SOLE PERSON RESPONSIBLE, & Reason For What You've Been Reading About On My Websites For NEARLY 5 YEARS; Is
HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN For His DISHONESTYCOLLUSION With OTHER CITY OFFICIALS Attempting To PREVENT ME FROM
OBTAINING PUBLIC INFORMATION About  WHAT WAS TAKING
PLACE IN THE CITY BY ITS PUBLIC OFFICIALS !!

When I Started 'DIGGING DEEPER' And Began Asking Him MORE EXACTING QUESTIONS, HAMBURG
CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN Then Began Giving Me Only VAGUE,
NEBULOUS And UNACCEPTABLE ANSWERS And INFORMATION. As An Example:

"The City does not have any data in its possession regarding your
specific (above) questions and for that reason, the City will not be
providing to you any responsive answers to your above questions."
Jeremy Gruenhagen, Hamburg  City Clerk-Treasurer

Based On What I ALREADY KNEW; It Became CLEAR TO ME
That A MAJOR 'COVER-UP'* WAS TAKING PLACE !!
*COVER UP: "A usually concerted effort to keep an illegal
or unethical  act or situation from being made public."

     Coupled With My Nearly Twenty Years As A (Now Retired) Licensed Police Officer &
            Because Of My 'Familiarity' Of  The City And ALREADY 'KNOWING' The Various 'Actors',
   And Their Idiosyncratic Traits, I Had A Good 'Foundation' To Continue My 'Digging'.

While The Information And Details Are Published In My Book "PUBLIC OFFICIALS BEHAVING BADLY",
MORE & MORE PUBLIC OFFICIALS In HIGHER and HIGHER PUBLIC OFFICES;
Became  IDENTIFIED As BEING INVOLVED !!

What BEGAN with an INTENTIONAL, OVERT LIE, DECEPTION & the AUTHORING of an OFFICIAL CITY DOCUMENT  by HAMBURG
CITY CLERK/TREASURER JEREMY GRUENHAGEN, that HE KNOWINGLY KNEW  CONTAINED FALSE  and FABRICATED
INFORMATION, has now involved, in addition to the HAMBURG MAYOR & ENTIRE HAMBURG CITY COUNCIL;
the ’contract’ HAMBURG CITY ATTORNEY KELLEY C. DOHM of the Waconia based law firm MELCHERT,
HUBERT & SJODIN, as well as the CARVER COUNTY ATTORNEY, MARK METZ; his DEPUTY
COUNTY  ATTORNEY, PETER IVY; the OFFICE OF LAWYER’S PROFESSIONAL
RESPONSIBILITY, MINNESOTA  ATTORNEY GENERAL  KEITH ELLISON,
the COMMISSIONER OF THE MINNESOTA SUPREME COURT
(an ‘appointee’ of Governor Walz)
as well as MINNESOTA’S GOVERNOR, TIM WALZ; himself !!

Knowing Of His Involvement & Like GRUENHAGEN, (They Both ALWAYS WANT TO BE IN THE 'SPOTLIGHT'); I Sent A Letter To HAMBURG MAYOR CHRISTOPHER M. LUND. In My Letter, I Asked MANY VERY DIRECT QUESTIONS, Asked For VERY
SPECIFIC FACTS & INFORMATION And SOUGHT EXPLANATIONS & ANSWERS For MUCH Of What I UNCOVERED.
I Also Asked QUESTIONS About The IMPROPER ACTIONS And MISCONDUCT Of Certain HAMBURG PUBLIC
OFFICIALS, INCLUDING HAMBURG'S VERY OWN MAYOR, CHRISTOPHER M. LUND !!

Please Check Back As I PUBLICLY Ask  HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND VERY SPECIFIC & DIRECT QUESTIONS SEEKING INFORMATION, EXPLANATIONS & DETAILS About
CRIMINAL ACIVITY In The CITY OF HAMBURG 'COVERED UP' By
CITY OFFICIALS Because Of  WHO WAS INVOLVED !!
(Just Like The 'Fire Truck Tampering' That I Describe In My Book !!)

My ENTIRE 22 PAGE LETTER To HAMBURG'S CONTROVERSIAL MAYOR, CHRIS LUND;
Is NOW AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC On My Website At: www.THEDELTASHOW.com/MAYORCHRISLUND.html

Shown Below Are The DISGUSTING DENEGRATIONS Of PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN, MINNESOTA GOVERNOR TIM WALZ And The CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS That HAMBURG MAYOR
