Formula Grant FL14P06650126

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office awarded the Hialeah Housing Authority a Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant in the amount of $3,147,610 on April 1, 2026, with a performance period extending through March 31, 2030. This capital funding supports critical infrastructure and operational improvements to public housing units within Hialeah, Florida, enabling the authority to address modernization needs, facility development, management improvements, and emergency repairs to its affordable housing inventory. The grant aligns with the Capital Fund program's primary objective of maintaining and enhancing safe, decent housing for low-income residents.

The Hialeah Housing Authority will deploy these funds for eligible capital and management activities as defined in 24 CFR Part 905, which may include construction and acquisition of additional public housing units, infrastructure upgrades, energy efficiency improvements, and emergency work. All fund expenditures must align with the authority's HUD-approved 5-year action plan or receive specific HUD authorization for emergency or disaster-related work. As a formula-based allocation program, the Capital Fund award amount was calculated by HUD using established formulas that reflect the authority's public housing inventory characteristics, such as unit counts and building age, rather than through a competitive application process.
