Summary: Public Housing Capital Fund Award to Housing Authority of the County of Delaware

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office awarded $397,661 to the Housing Authority of the County of Delaware through the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant, effective April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2030. This award enables the housing authority to fund capital and management activities supporting public housing operations in Delaware County, Indiana, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and development of additional public housing units. The funds may also support financing activities such as debt service payments and customary financing costs for standard and mixed-finance developments.

As a formula-based allocation program, the Public Housing Capital Fund distributes annual funding to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million public housing units. Award amounts are calculated using established formulas reflecting each PHA's public housing inventory characteristics—including unit counts, building age, and construction costs—rather than through competitive application processes. The Housing Authority of the County of Delaware must maintain accurate public housing inventory data in HUD's Information Management System and comply with all applicable federal cost principles and audit requirements under 2 CFR 200 throughout the performance period.
