This award supports capital and management activities for public housing modernization, development, and infrastructure improvements serving low-income residents in the Sandusky, Ohio region.

Erie Metro must obligate these funds according to HUD deadlines and utilize them exclusively for activities described in 24 CFR Part 905, with all expenditures and financial records subject to compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and independent audit requirements. The organization maintains required inventory data certification through HUD's Information Management System to ensure continued eligibility for annual capital fund allocations.
