Federal Grant Award Summary

The Woodford County Housing Authority received a $129,204 formula grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) program, effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This award provides capital funding to support public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, and management activities within Woodford County. The Capital Fund supports eligible activities including construction and acquisition of public housing units, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing costs associated with standard and mixed-finance housing developments, all intended to serve low-income residents.

As a formula-based allocation program, the Public Housing Capital Fund distributes annual grants to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million public housing units across all 50 states and territories. Award amounts are calculated using established formulas based on characteristics of each agency's public housing inventory, such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive applications. The Woodford County Housing Authority must utilize these capital funds exclusively for activities specified in its approved 5-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work, and must maintain compliance with federal administrative requirements and accurate inventory documentation in HUD's Information Management System.
