Summary of Federal Grant Award

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), through its Public and Indian Housing Office, awarded $723,177.00 to the Williamsburg Housing Authority under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant program. The award period runs from April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. As a formula-based allocation program, the Capital Fund provides PHAs with annual funding to support capital and management activities for public housing inventory, calculated according to established formulas reflecting each agency's housing characteristics rather than through competitive application processes.

The Williamsburg Housing Authority will utilize these capital funds for eligible activities including public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and critical infrastructure upgrades within its housing inventory in Williamsburg, Kentucky. Permissible uses under the program include facility rehabilitation, emergency repairs, energy efficiency improvements, and development activities that add to or reconfigure the PHA's public housing units. All funded activities must be specified in an approved five-year action plan or approved by HUD for emergency work, with expenditure compliance required under 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and auditing provisions applicable to all PHA recipients.
