Summary

The Tuscumbia Housing Authority received a $622,961 formula grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities designed to modernize, develop, and improve public housing units within the authority's inventory in Tuscumbia, Alabama. The funding enables the authority to undertake eligible capital improvement projects, infrastructure upgrades, emergency repairs, and development activities that enhance and maintain affordable housing stock for low-income residents.

As a formula-based allocation program, the Public Housing Capital Fund distributes annual funding to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million public housing units across all 50 states and territories. Award amounts are calculated using established formulas based on characteristics of each agency's public housing inventory, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes. The Tuscumbia Housing Authority must utilize these funds exclusively for activities specified in its HUD-approved five-year action plan or for emergency work, and must comply with Uniform Administrative Requirements under 2 CFR 200 and maintain accurate inventory records in HUD's Information Management System.
