The Tenants also cite cases where various federal courts have struck down PHA policies: imposing a duration-of-family requirement, James v. New York City Hous. Auth., 622 F.Supp. 1356 (S.D.N.Y.1985); discontinuing the provision of stoves to new tenants, Curtis v. Housing Auth. of City of Oakland, 746 F.Supp. 989 (N.D.Cal.1990); and imposing a two-year residency requirement, Cole v. Housing Auth. of Newport, 435 F.2d 807 (1st Cir.1970). The Tenants argue that the cost-effectiveness and uniformity desired by THA are not valid grounds for violating the purpose of the Act, no matter how small the additional financial burden on the Tenants.
