Federal Grant Award Summary

The Palm Beach County Housing Authority received a $1.50M 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 critical capital and management activities for public housing infrastructure serving low-income residents across Palm Beach County, Florida.

The grant funds modernization, development, infrastructure upgrades, and emergency repairs to public housing units within the Authority's inventory. Eligible activities include construction and acquisition of additional public housing units, facility improvements, energy efficiency enhancements, and debt service payments for mixed-finance developments. As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, the award amount is calculated using HUD's established formula that reflects the Authority's public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The Authority must maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System and comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, with all expenditures completed by the March 31, 2030 deadline.
