Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of the City of Fresno received a $1,606,494 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) for the period April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This award funds capital and management activities essential to maintaining and improving the authority's public housing portfolio serving low-income residents in Fresno, California. Eligible uses of the funding include public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, development of additional housing units, and financing activities including debt service payments and customary financing costs for standard and mixed-finance developments.

As a formula-based allocation, the award amount was calculated by HUD using established formulas reflecting the Housing Authority's public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through a competitive application process. The authority must comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System, and ensure all funded activities are either specified in its approved 5-Year Action Plan or approved by HUD for emergency work or disaster-related activities.
