Public Housing Capital Fund Award Summary

The Barnesville Housing Authority received a $455,707 formula grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Public and Indian Housing Office, under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for the Authority's public housing portfolio serving low-income residents in Barnesville, Georgia. Eligible uses of capital funds include public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, emergency repairs, and development activities that expand or reconfigure the Authority's housing inventory, as specified in the Authority's approved 5-Year Action Plan or HUD-approved emergency work requests.

The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as a formula-based allocation program rather than a competitive grant, with awards calculated annually based on characteristics of each Public Housing Agency's inventory, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The Barnesville Housing Authority, which manages approximately 1,000 public housing units, must maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System and comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, including annual certification of capital fund information and audit requirements. All capital funds must be obligated by the specified deadline with expenditures completed by the ultimate completion date of March 31, 2030.
