Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing Authority of the City of Frederick Corporation received $926,426 in formula grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) program, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for public housing operations serving low-income residents in Frederick, Maryland.

The funding enables the Housing Authority to perform critical infrastructure and operational improvements, including modernization of public housing units, development activities that expand or reconfigure the housing inventory, emergency repairs, preventative maintenance, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing costs associated with public housing development. As a formula-based allocation, the award amount was calculated using HUD's established formula reflecting the Housing Authority's public housing inventory characteristics, such as unit counts and building age, rather than through a competitive application process. All expenditures must align with eligible activities specified in the Housing Authority's approved 5-year action plan or be approved by HUD for emergency work or disaster-related needs, with compliance required under 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements.
