Summary

The Fresno County Housing Authority received a $1,954,080.00 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), effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing modernization, development, and infrastructure improvements serving low-income residents in Fresno County. The Capital Fund award enables eligible activities including construction and acquisition of public housing units, facility modernization, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and management improvements as specified in the Authority's approved five-year action plan and HUD regulations (24 CFR Part 905).

As a formula-based allocation program, the Public Housing Capital Fund distributes annual grants to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide managing nearly one million units. The Fresno County Housing Authority's allocation is calculated using established formulas reflecting its public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The funds must be obligated by the established deadline and expended by March 31, 2030, in compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements. The Authority maintains detailed inventory data in HUD's Information Management System and submits annual certifications to maintain funding eligibility.
