Tenancywrangle
The News and Chronicle has learned that the individual was on the brink of moving into a North Lanarkshire Council-owned property in Condorrat’s Primrose Place. The tenant has been housed in a number of homes in both Cumbernauld and Kilsyth in recent years.
However locals believe that the tenant will bring an undesirable influence to their street - and met with housing officials and police to discuss the matter. A decision regarding the tenancy was due to be made shortly after we went to press yesterday (Tuesday).

Hide AdNLC’s operations manager Stephen Llewellyn confirmed the meeting had gone ahead and added: “Like every other council in Scotland we have a legal duty to provide homes for those most in need. It’s not our policy to discuss the personal details of our tenants, particularly through the local newspaper.”
He added: “It is extremely disappointing that the local community has reacted in this way and that we must now consider the future safety of our tenant.”
