Borger argues that it should not be required to provide Nelson-Lee with a second opportunity to cure the same violations of tenancy obligations for which she received the Notice to Cure or Quit six months earlier. Borger claims that interpreting the statute to require a second notice to cure when the tenant repeats the same violation after the initial cure period elapses would allow a tenant to correct a violation on the thirtieth day of the cure period and prevent eviction, but then resume violating the tenancy obligations on the very next day in an attempt to manipulate the system. However, neither the statute nor the regulations provide for such a waiver of the tenant’s opportunity to correct a violation once the tenant has sufficiently cured. See
