Federal Formula Grant Award Summary

The Los Angeles County Development Authority (LACDA) received a $9.57 million 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) on April 1, 2026. This award, obligated through March 31, 2030, supports capital and management activities essential to modernizing and developing public housing inventory across Los Angeles County. The funding enables LACDA to execute capital improvements, infrastructure upgrades, emergency safety and security measures, and management enhancements across its public housing portfolio serving low-income residents.

As a formula-based allocation rather than competitive award, the grant funding is calculated using established methodologies that reflect LACDA's public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction cost indices. Eligible uses of capital funds include modernization of existing units, development of additional public housing units, acquisition and construction activities, emergency repairs, energy efficiency improvements, and financing-related costs. LACDA must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and ensure accurate public housing inventory data in HUD's Information Management System throughout the performance period.
