...Seems like she should have given you an alternative by suggesting you get a CAR COVER
. Maybe you could speak to her and come to that compromise?
IMO...I can understand her position, Especially if there are kids around.
She is obligated to protect, or do what's in the best interest of the Business and those that live there.
But are ya breaking "the Law"?
I suggest you look at your Lease (if ya haven't already) and see if she has grounds to evict you.
