Formula Grant MI33P09150126

The Kingsford Housing Commission received a $190,668 formula grant 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), effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs to maintain the Commission's public housing inventory in compliance with federal standards. The Capital Fund operates on a formula-based allocation methodology rather than competitive applications, with awards calculated according to each Public Housing Agency's (PHA) specific inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs.

The Kingsford Housing Commission will utilize these capital funds exclusively for eligible activities specified in its approved 5-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work and disaster-related repairs. Eligible activities include public housing development and modernization, energy efficiency upgrades, infrastructure enhancements, and financing costs associated with standard and mixed-finance developments. As a direct award with no sub-awardee partners, the Commission will independently implement these federally-funded activities to serve low-income residents in the Kingsford, Michigan area while maintaining compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and HUD's Information Management System requirements.
