Formula Grant AR56P02650126

The Housing Authority of the City of Morrilton received a $607,044 formula grant award dated April 1, 2026, 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). This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing, with a performance period extending through March 31, 2030. The grant enables Morrilton Housing Authority to fund modernization and development of public housing units, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and related capital projects that maintain and enhance the quality of affordable housing stock serving low-income residents in Morrilton, Arkansas.

As a formula-based allocation program, the Capital Fund award is calculated using established formulas that reflect the characteristics of Morrilton Housing Authority's public housing inventory, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes. The funded activities must align with eligible activities specified in 24 CFR Part 905 and either be included in the authority's approved five-year action plan or be approved by HUD for emergency or disaster-related work. These capital improvements support the authority's ongoing mission to maintain decent, safe, and sanitary housing while serving the nation's public housing system through direct management and administration of federal housing funds.
