Formula Grant FL00500082525D

The County of Miami-Dade, through its Miami-Dade Public Housing and Community Development Division, has been awarded a $619,731 formula grant under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) program. This 6-year grant, spanning from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2031, will provide operating subsidies to the county's public housing authority to fund the day-to-day operational expenses of its 3,000+ public housing units. The grant supports a range of activities, including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, and administrative expenses. The program aims to maintain high occupancy rates, improve resident quality of life, and promote fair housing practices for low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities in Miami-Dade County. As a major public housing authority serving over 2.6 million residents, the county will leverage this federal funding to continue providing decent, safe, and affordable rental homes across its communities.
