Formula Grant FL29P04250126

The Union County Housing Authority received a $393,995 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 capital and management activities for public housing serving low-income residents in Union County, Florida, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and development of public housing units. The Capital Fund allocation is calculated using a formula based on the authority's public housing inventory characteristics, such as unit counts and building age, rather than through competitive application processes.

The funded activities must comply with eligible uses specified in 24 CFR 905.200 and be documented in the authority's approved 5-year action plan or approved by HUD for emergency work and disaster-related repairs. Additionally, the Capital Fund supports financing activities including debt service payments and customary financing costs for standard and mixed-finance developments. As a prime recipient administering the grant directly, Union County Housing Authority must maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System, comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, and submit annual certifications to ensure continued eligibility for ongoing formula-based allocations.
