What is the law banning pit bulls in New York city housing authority?

The new weight and breed rules do not apply to service dogs or to residents of Section 8 subsidized apartments, which NYCHA does not manage. But those who have had dogs over 40 pounds since 2002 and did not register them with the housing authority at that time may now face eviction. Some residents have already been told to remove their dogs. "Over the years, we had been getting an increasing number of complaints about problems associated with dangerous dogs; dogs that are used for fighting, dogs that are attack dogs, and dogs that are not being handled and trained properly by their owners," says NYCHA spokesman Howard Marder when asked what prompted this latest change. Many New Yorkers, NYCHA and non-NYCHA residents alike, were taken aback by the public housing authority's seeming haste to put the new weight and breed bans into effect. In addition to some initial glaring missteps, like the publication of a list containing the names of 27 so-called 'dangerous breeds' (which included the likes of Boston Terriers) the new rules seemed to contradict a New York State law which has long prohibited state municipalities from making laws which ban the ownership of specific Dog Breeds. To that, Mr. Marder says, "NYCHA is not a municipality. Therefore the rule does not apply." However, he says, NYCHA met with city animal advocacy organizations prior to implementing the new rule because "we didn't take [this] change lightly."

What you are asking is about portability of your voucher, which must be approved by your Housing Program Coordinator (HPC)'s Portability Officer at your Housing Authority. In this case there are two Housing Authorities involved, the Housing Authority in Florida, known as the initial Housing Authority, and the receiving Housing Authority in New York. Before you terminate the lease in Florida, you should first get your voucher ported to NY. When the NY Housing Authority receives your paperwork they will give you an appointment for a voucher there. Your voucher in Florida will still be good and you should not terminate anything there yet. When you find your New York home you need to have it inspected by the receiving Housing Authority and they will give you the okay to move there. You may have to pay your security deposit and the prorated amount of your rent (that is, what you are supposed to pay given the voucher, not the entire amount of the prorated rent). When you have everything set in New York, then you terminate the Florida matter. If you don't follow these instructions or whatever instructions are given to you by both Housing Authorities, you could lose your voucher and rent subsidy. So be very careful here!
