Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of the County of Sacramento (HACOS) received a $449,899 Formula Grant award from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) program, obligated on April 20, 2026, with performance through December 31, 2029. This award provides operating subsidies to support the day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses of public housing dwellings serving lower-income residents throughout Sacramento County. Funded activities encompass property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation expenses required under the U.S. Housing Act of 1937.

As one of approximately 6,000 Public Housing Agencies nationwide participating in this $5 billion federal program, HACOS utilizes these operating funds to maintain service delivery and adequate operating reserves for its public housing portfolio. The award enables the agency to preserve the physical integrity of public housing stock while ensuring that essential housing and supportive services remain accessible to vulnerable populations, including elderly residents and families with children, throughout its service area in Sacramento County.
