PHA Not Required to Give Resident Opportunity to Cure Lease Violations

Facts: A public housing resident signed a year-long lease. The lease stated that it “shall automatically be renewed for successive terms of 12 months” unless modified or terminated in accordance with certain lease provisions. On the day of signing, the resident met with a site employee, to review the lease terms. At that meeting, the resident was accompanied by the father of her three children. The employee asked her if the father would be living in the apartment, and she said that he would not be part of the household.
