Sec. 882.509  Overcrowded and under occupied units.

    If the PHA determines that a Contract unit is not decent, safe, and 
sanitary by reason of increase in Family size, or that a Contract unit 
is larger than appropriate for the size of the Family in occupancy, 
housing assistance payments with respect to the unit will not be abated; 
However, the Owner must offer the Family a suitable alternative unit 
should one be available and the Family will be required to move. If the 
Owner does not have a suitable available unit, the PHA must assist the 
Family in locating other standard housing in the locality within the 
Family's ability to pay and require the Family to move to such a unit as 
soon as possible. In no case will a Family be forced to move nor will 
housing assistance payments under the Contract be terminated unless the 
Family rejects without good reason the offer of a unit which the PHA 
judges to be acceptable.
