Following a hearing on March 3, the tribunal decided to issue an immediate Banning Order. The order, which is subject to appeal, bans Stoddern from letting houses, letting agency work or property management work in England. The latest offences came to the attention of the Council’s Private Sector Housing Team during the first national lockdown due to concerns that the house risked increasing community Covid transmission. Stuart Kenney, from the team, said: “Prosecution, including fines issued by Truro Magistrates’ Court, have seemingly not deterred repeat offending and the Council has exhausted all options available to encourage compliance. “There have been multiple reports of antisocial behaviour and police attendance to the address over several years, with a demonstrably high community impact linked to the offending.
