Federal Grant Award Summary

The Housing & Redevelopment Authority of International Falls, Minnesota received a Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant award of $196,643.00 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for the authority's Woodland Park Apartments division, including public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, development activities, and emergency repairs to maintain decent, safe, and sanitary housing conditions for low-income residents.

The Capital Fund grant enables the authority to undertake eligible activities specified in its 5-Year Action Plan or HUD-approved emergency work, with funding directed toward development (adding or significantly reconfiguring public housing units), modernization of existing units, management improvements, and related infrastructure upgrades. As a formula-based allocation program, the award amount reflects the authority's public housing inventory characteristics and is administered directly by the recipient without involving subcontractors, consistent with the authority's historical grant management practices dating to its 2021 funding cycle.
