Federal Grant Award Summary

The Manatee County Housing Authority received a Formula Grant award of $248,980 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) program, effective April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing operations serving low-income residents, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities in the Bradenton, Florida area.

Under this award, the Authority will utilize capital funds for eligible activities including public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, emergency repairs, and management enhancements to its public housing inventory. The funding may also support financing activities such as debt service payments and customary financing costs for public housing developments. Capital Fund allocations are determined through HUD's established formula methodology based on characteristics of each Public Housing Agency's inventory, such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes. All expenditures must comply with 24 CFR Part 905 and align with the Authority's approved 5-Year Action Plan or receive HUD approval for emergency work.
