Home investment partnerships program

The City of Port Huron received a formula grant allocation of $182,086.41 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Home Investment Partnerships Program (CFDA 14.239), awarded on September 16, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2034. This formula-based allocation supports the city's Community Development Division in financing affordable housing activities, which may include rehabilitation of owner-occupied housing, homebuyer assistance, acquisition and rehabilitation of rental housing, and tenant-based rental assistance to low-income households in Port Huron, Michigan.

Under the HOME program, all funded housing activities must meet federal income targeting and affordability requirements, with assisted housing remaining affordable to low-income residents for periods of 5 to 20 years depending on the activity type and level of HOME funding contributed. The City of Port Huron, as an eligible participating jurisdiction, is responsible for implementing these activities in accordance with its Consolidated Plan and Annual Action Plans, maintaining required records, and ensuring compliance with HUD regulations. This award represents the city's ongoing participation in the HOME program, which has distributed over $41 billion nationally since 1990 to create more than 1.38 million affordable housing units.
