In a proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 to review a determination of the Westchester County Section 8 Rental Assistance Program of the Westchester County Department of Planning dated July 14, 2005, which, after a hearing, confirmed its initial determination to terminate the petitioner’s participation in the Section 8 Tenant Based Assistance Program administered and funded by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development, the petitioner appeals from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (DiBella, J.), entered April 18, 2006, which denied the petition and dismissed the proceeding on the merits.
Ordered that the appeal is dismissed and the judgment is vacated; and it is further,
Adjudged that the determination is confirmed, the petition is denied, and the proceeding is dismissed on the merits, with costs.
A hearing officer of the Westchester County Section 8 Rental Assistance Program of the Westchester County Department of Planning upheld the termination of the petitioner’s benefits under the federal Section 8 Tenant Based Assistance Program on the grounds that she failed to supply truthful and complete information with respect to her application, failed to obtain required approval to add an individual to her household, and failed to provide additional relevant information when requested. The determination is supported by substantial evidence, including the petitioner’s admission at the hearing that she misrepresented her status as the custodial parent of her three children.
The petitioner’s remaining contentions are without merit. Spolzino, J.P., Dillon, Angiolillo and Dickerson, JJ., concur.
