“1) The parties agree to restrict the class certified in the above-captioned case to applicants to and residents of traditional low-rent public housing owned by public housing authorities in the thirty-six East Texas counties. 2) This agreement shall not be construed to foreclose any argument opposing or supporting use of other HUD-assisted housing as a remedy for the class certified in paragraph # 1. 3) In light of the instant agreement, the parties agree that the number of hours of attorney’s fees claimed by plaintiffs in No. 86-2526 will be reduced by six per cent (calculated by years).”
