A note just appeared on every door on the apartment building. There is a mandatory apartment inspection on Tuesday at 9 in the morning being conducted by the city...Ummm what? Firstly, why on Election Day? And second, why at a time where I would either be voting or at work? Hmmm...

This is exactly like the time I got a ticket for not having a city sticker...when the only time they ever enforce city stickers is for the few months in which the price to get one triples...And mind you, while the city requires all cars that park in its limits to have stickers, they do nothing to inform the public of such requirement. So I’ve been told by the parking enforcement officer “it’s your job to go down to the city office and find it out.”

Old School $kaybait for your time. :)

What’s the nature of the apartment inspection? If they didn’t say, that’s really weird... but if it’s just to make sure no one is a hoarder/harboring a major fire hazard that would make sense.

Is your mayor a retired sergeant major? If so make sure there’s no cigarette butts in the parking lot.

I’d say there’s very little chance this is anything other than a voter supression tactic. It’s either a fake notice designed to make you wait at home all day instead of voting, or a real notice from the city designed to make you wait at home all day instead of voting. In both cases, it’s could be a criminal attempt to supress your vote. You should go to

Contact the FBI and Voting Departmentof the DoJ. Voter suppression is a federal offense that they take very seriously.

Voter suppression. Don’t fall for it and report it like many others have stated before.

Like everyone else said, it’s voter suppression. See if you can get someone in trouble for it!

Throw my comment on the pile of “this is voter suppression and you should report it.”

Besides the fact that it’s clearly voter supression...is any kind of inspection of an apartment by the city without a warrant even legal?
I’m not really familiar with your laws, especially regarding renting.

I’m not even entirely sure. I hope Miss Tesla tells the inspector to buzz off unless he had a warrant, if only for the fact that the city chose the 8th to do an inspection and they won’t tell us what they’re inspecting exactly.

Or she should just call the police if someone shows up. This is creepy as hell considering the time and the circumstances O.o
