New York Mayor Eric Adams was hit with new fines over a rat infestation at one of his properties in Brooklyn.
According to two summonses from the New York Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings dated December 7, Adams is facing fines of up to $1,200 for failing to eliminate conditions that “encourage the nesting of rats” and failing to eliminate a rodent infestation shown by active rodent signs at a property he owns in Brooklyn. Adams said he’s “concerned” that he received the new summons and vowed to challenge them and show “that rats don’t run this city.
“I am concerned that, despite previously spending nearly $7,000 on rat mitigation efforts, I received two new summonses on the same day, even though a neutral hearing officer found that I ‘demonstrate[d] sufficient steps taken…to prevent and control infestation at [my] property.’ I will again challenge these violations and show that rats don’t run this city.
