Summary of Federal Grant Award

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office awarded the Romulus Housing Commission a Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant of $273,047 effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing operations serving Brownstown Township, Michigan. Under the Capital Fund program, the Romulus Housing Commission utilizes these resources for eligible activities including public housing modernization, development, physical infrastructure upgrades, energy efficiency enhancements, management improvements, and emergency repairs. The funding may also support financing activities such as debt service payments related to standard and mixed-finance housing developments.

As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, this award reflects the Romulus Housing Commission's public housing inventory characteristics and is calculated according to HUD's established methodology. The recipient must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, document all capital improvement activities in accordance with an approved 5-year action plan, and maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System. The four-year performance period allows the agency to strategically plan and execute capital improvements that enhance the quality and sustainability of its low-income housing portfolio for eligible residents including families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities.
