This federal Formula Grant award, provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Operating Fund program (CFDA 14.850), supports the operations and maintenance of public housing units managed by the Northampton Housing Authority. The $148,954 award dated January 1, 2025 will enable the housing authority to fund day-to-day operational expenses, including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, and administrative costs. These activities are critical to maintaining the availability of decent, safe, and affordable housing for eligible low-income families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities in the Northampton, MA community. The housing authority has also received sub-awards through the City of Northampton using HUD Community Development Block Grant funding to support additional targeted projects, such as playground upgrades, to comprehensively address the needs of its public housing portfolio.
