We consider a class of $ {\Bbb R} ^d$-valued stochastic
control systems, with possibly unbounded costs. The systems
evolve according to a discrete-time equation
$x_{t+1}=G_n(x_t,a_t)+\xi _t$ ($t=0,1,\dots
$), for each fixed $n=0,1,\dots
, $ where the $\xi _t$ are i.i.d. random vectors, and
the $G_n$ are given functions converging pointwise to some
function $G_{\infty }$ as $n \to \infty $. Under suitable
hypotheses, our main results state the existence of stationary
control policies that are expected average
cost (EAC) optimal and sample path
average cost (SPAC) optimal for the
limiting control system $x_{t+1}=G_{\infty }(x_t,a_t)+\xi _t$
($t=0,1,\dots$).
