Opinion
July 6, 1998
Adjudged that the determination is confirmed and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits, without costs or disbursements.
Following a hearing, the respondent Town of Islip Housing Authority determined that the petitioner committed two violations of 24 C.F.R. § 982.551 (b) (2) in that she misrepresented her family composition and misrepresented her income. Based upon our review of the record, we find the respondents' determination to be supported by substantial evidence ( see, Matter of Berenhaus v. Ward, 70 N.Y.2d 436, 443; 300 Gramatan Ave. Assocs. v. State Div. of Human Rights, 45 N.Y.2d 176, 179). Thus, the determination must be sustained, regardless of whether a similar quantum of evidence is available to support a varying conclusion ( see, Matter of Collins v. Codd, 38 N.Y.2d 269, 270).
We have considered the petitioner's remaining contention and find it to be without merit.
