Mayor Adams ordered to pay $300 fine for rat infestation at Brooklyn townhouse
Meanwhile, a second December summons that cited the self-proclaimed rodent-hater for rat burrows and droppings at the townhouse — which he rents out while living in Gracie Mansion — was dismissed after Adams testified last week that he had spent some $7,000 on rodent removal, the judgement on the citation showed.
Adams had claimed that the infestation was actually on his neighbor’s property and provided an 11-minute video in an attempt to illustrate his point. The court ruled the video evidence was insufficient — but applauded the mayor’s rat removal efforts, noting he had provided “credible proof” of plans to control a vermin infestation.
Eric Adams pictured announcing the results of a pilot program aimed at curbing the rat population around Brooklyn Borough Hall when he served as borough president in 2019.Adams had claimed that the infestation was actually on his neighbor’s property.“In sum, Respondent credibly established a pest management plan in place prior to the issuance of the summons to prevent pest infestations through his specific, ongoing efforts,” Chetrit wrote.
The Democrat now has the right to appeal the first decision and the $300 fine within 35 days, sources close to the case said.“The mayor is grateful that one of the two summonses was dismissed, and he is reviewing the second decision,” Press Secretary Fabian Levy told The Post.The latest legal developments were first reported Tuesday by Bloomberg.
