I assume that Defendants are not trying to commit eco-
nomic suicide. If that is so, they must somehow compensate
for this loss of income. They may do so by failing to maintain
and service plaintiffs’ living units in compliance with HUD’s
housing quality standards. They may also seek to recoup some
of their loss by renewing their efforts to empty Park Village
of its population of elderly, fixed-income Section 8 tenants.
Only such cost-saving measures action make any economic
sense, especially because, as the district court observed,
defendants “could identify no specific terms in the HAP con-
tract which were objectionable.”
