The statute also provides for adjustments in the monthly rents to reflect changes in the fair market rentals, and additional adjustments “to the extent [the Secretary] determines such adjustments are necessary to reflect increases in the actual and necessary expenses of owning and maintaining the units,” including increases in taxes, utility rates, and other costs. 42 U.S.C. § 1437f(C)(2)(B) (1982). Furthermore, a landlord can terminate a tenancy under the Section 8 program for “good causes” including the landlord’s “desire to rent the unit at a higher rental.” 24 C.F.R. § 882.215(c)(2) (1986).
