2890. IN RE KJ, pet, v. NEW YORK CITY HOUSING AUTHORITY, res — KJ, PETITIONER PRO SE. David I. Farber, New York (Melissa R. Renwick of counsel), for res — Final determination of respondent, dated May 1, 2013, terminating petitioner’s Section 8 rent subsidy, unanimously confirmed, the petition denied, and the proceeding brought pursuant to CPLR article 78 (transferred to this Court pursuant to CPLR 7804[g] by order of Supreme Court, New York County [Peter H. Moulton, J.], entered February 13, 2015), dismissed, without costs.

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s determination that petitioner violated her obligation under governing rules to permit the agency to inspect her apartment (see Matter of Arrocha v. Board of Educ. of City of N.Y., 93 NY2d 361, 363 [1999]; Matter of Pell v. Board of Educ. of Union Free School Dist. No. 1 of Towns of Scarsdale & Mamaroneck, Westchester County, 34 NY2d 222, 230-231 [1974]). Substantial evidence likewise supports the finding that petitioner’s request that her disabling mental illness, which caused her to suffer panic attacks at the prospect of any person entering her apartment, be accommodated by indefinitely waiving the inspection requirement, was unreasonable.
