Federal Grant Award Summary

The Menominee Housing Commission received a Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant award of $348,595 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, effective April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2030. This grant supports capital and management activities for public housing operations in Menominee, Michigan, including modernization, development, and infrastructure improvements to the Commission's housing inventory.

The funding enables the Menominee Housing Commission to carry out eligible capital activities such as facility modernization, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and potential development of additional public housing units serving low-income residents. As a formula-based allocation under the Public Housing Capital Fund program, the grant amount is determined by established formulas reflecting the Commission's inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application. Funds must be obligated by the deadline established by HUD and expended in accordance with 24 CFR Part 905 eligible activities, either through activities specified in the Commission's approved five-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work.
