Facts

D owns at least three single-family dwellings that she has rented to various individuals over the past several years. On June 7, 2007, Ms. Jennifer Johnson Stevens contacted d and inquired about one of her recently advertised rentals. D asked Ms. Stevens if she had any children and further told her that she was not renting to anyone with children. Shortly after this conversation, Ms. Stevens contacted the Fair Housing Council of Oregon ('FHCO') because she was concerned that D was discriminating against renters with children. The FHCO conducted testing of d's practices from July 26 through July 28, 2007, to determine if violations of the FHAA had occurred or were occurring. P discovered evidence that D had a long-standing practice of refusing to rent to families with children. D told prospective renters that she did not want children in her homes.
