Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of the City of Bridgeport, Alabama received a $210,076 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 program (CFDA 14.872). The award, obligated on April 1, 2026, with a completion deadline of March 31, 2030, supports capital and management activities for public housing in Bridgeport, Alabama. Under this program, the Housing Authority will fund eligible capital activities including public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and related management improvements for low-income residents.

The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as a formula-based allocation program that distributes federal funds to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide serving nearly one million public housing units across all 50 states and territories. Award amounts are calculated using established formulas reflecting each agency's inventory characteristics—such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs—rather than through competitive application processes. The Housing Authority must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and utilize capital funds exclusively for eligible activities as specified in 24 CFR Part 905, either through its approved five-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency or disaster-related work.
