Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of the Town of Seymour received $145,688 in funding through the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The award, effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, provides operating subsidies to support the day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses of public housing units serving low-income residents in Seymour, Connecticut.

The funding supports essential activities including property management and operations, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative expenses required under the U.S. Housing Act of 1937. As part of the broader $5 billion national Public Housing Operating Fund program serving approximately 6,000 housing authorities and 1.59 million residents, this formula grant enables the Seymour Housing Authority to maintain affordable housing operations and preserve minimum operating reserves necessary for continued service delivery to elderly residents, families with children, and other eligible low-income households.
