“I’ve had carpet down since 2005 so I know Parkchester had no business bothering me for something that I’ve done 17 years ago,” she said.

She continued, “I briefly opened my door. I asked them if they saw a carpet they didn’t say a word they just stared at me and I slammed the door in their face told them to have a great day

“Oh I was threaten[ed] with a summon if I didn’t let them in
I have the right to have some type of notice when I’m going to have an inspection.”
