Summary

The Housing Authority of Kansas City, Kansas received a $7.32 million 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) for the performance period of April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for the authority's public housing portfolio serving the Kansas City, Kansas metropolitan area. Eligible uses of the grant funds include modernization and infrastructure improvements to existing public housing units, development and acquisition of additional units, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing activities such as debt service payments for mixed-finance developments.

As a formula-based allocation program, the Public Housing Capital Fund distributes annual allocations to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million units across all 50 states and territories. Award amounts are calculated using established formulas reflecting each PHA's inventory characteristics—including unit counts, building age, and construction costs—rather than through competitive application processes. The KCK Housing Authority must maintain accurate public housing inventory data in HUD's Information Management System and comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, with obligation of funds required by the ultimate completion date of March 31, 2030.
