Formula Grant MS26P06050126

The Housing Authority of the City of Brookhaven received a formula grant award of $798,477.00 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office through the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) for the performance period of April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for the Authority's public housing portfolio, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, facility enhancements, and development activities that expand or reconfigure the public housing inventory.

The Capital Fund award enables the Housing Authority to maintain and improve approximately 1,000 public housing units serving nearly 1,000 low-income families in Brookhaven, Mississippi. Eligible uses of the grant funding include construction and acquisition of additional housing units, emergency repairs, debt service payments for standard and mixed-finance developments, and customary financing costs—all activities must align with the Authority's HUD-approved 5-Year Action Plan or be approved by HUD for emergency or disaster-related work. As a prime awardee, the Housing Authority operates without identified sub-contractors and must maintain compliance with Uniform Administrative Requirements (2 CFR 200) and accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System throughout the award period.
