Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of Johnson County received a $209,896 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 program (CFDA 14.872), effective April 1, 2026, with completion by March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and related eligible activities as specified in 24 CFR Part 905. The funds may be utilized for development activities that add to or reconfigure public housing units, modernization efforts to improve existing public housing stock, management improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing activities including debt service payments for standard and mixed-finance developments serving low-income residents.

As a Public Housing Agency (PHA) managing public housing inventory in Johnson County, Illinois, the authority will deploy these capital funds according to its HUD-approved five-year action plan or for emergency and disaster-related work. The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as a formula-based allocation program, with award amounts calculated by HUD based on established formulas reflecting each PHA's inventory characteristics such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes. The recipient must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and comply with applicable audit requirements throughout the grant performance period.
