Summary of Federal Grant Award

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), through its Public and Indian Housing Office, awarded the Housing Authority Town of Church Point a formula grant of $313,731 under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) on April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2030. This award provides funding for capital and management activities to support public housing improvements serving low-income residents in Church Point, Louisiana. The Capital Fund supports eligible activities including modernization, development, rehabilitation, property management enhancements, emergency repairs, and financing activities related to public housing infrastructure.

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 across all 50 states and territories. Award amounts are calculated using established formulas reflecting each agency's public housing inventory characteristics, such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes. The Church Point Housing Authority will utilize these funds in accordance with 24 CFR Part 905 to execute capital activities specified in its approved five-year action plan or for emergency work as approved by HUD, while maintaining compliance with the Uniform Administrative Requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200.
