Home investment partnerships program

The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development awarded the City of Tampa $1,529,902.71 under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239) on January 7, 2026.

HOME funds support the acquisition, rehabilitation, or construction of rental housing; rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing; assistance to homebuyers; and tenant-based rental assistance. Housing assisted through HOME funding must meet affordability requirements and remain affordable to low-income households for 5, 10, 15, or 20 years depending on the activity type and amount of HOME funding contributed.

The award obligates $1,529,902.71 with a period of performance through September 30, 2034. Place of performance is Tampa, Florida. The City of Tampa receives this allocation as a participating jurisdiction under the HOME formula grant structure, which distributes 60 percent of annual HOME appropriations to localities and 40 percent to states. The city may undertake HOME projects directly or pass funds to developers, owners, or other affordable housing partners. Participating jurisdictions must maintain records documenting program compliance for the most recent five-year period, with affordability documentation retained for five years beyond the required period.
