Summary

The Housing Authority of the City of Hughes received a $132,118 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Public and Indian Housing Office, under the Public Housing Capital Fund program (CFDA 14.872), effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This allocation supports capital and management activities for public housing in Hughes, Arkansas, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and development of public housing units serving low-income residents. The funding may also support financing activities, including debt service payments and customary financing costs for public housing developments, as outlined in 24 CFR Part 905.

As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, the award amount was calculated using HUD's established methodology reflecting the Housing Authority's public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The Housing Authority must utilize funds exclusively for eligible activities specified in its approved 5-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work, and must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements throughout the grant period.
