“We’re all engaged – all of my tenants, they put the garbage inside the pail. It’s well maintained. The video and the photo clearly shows my property is well kept,” Adams said, adding that he’d spent upwards of $8,000 rat-proofing the residence. “He did what?” exclaimed one neighbor, who only gave her name as Jill for fear of angering the mayor. “That’s so messed up.”Some neighbors, however, acknowledged Adams may have had a point about the neighbor, pointing out piles of trash and recycling sitting in a front courtyard.
