Formula Grant OR16P01150126

The Salem Housing Authority received a $638,692 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) program, awarded April 1, 2026, with a completion date of March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing serving low-income residents in the Salem, Oregon area, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, development of additional housing units, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades to ensure decent, safe, and sanitary living conditions across the organization's public housing inventory.

The Capital Fund formula-based allocation enables the Salem Housing Authority to execute eligible capital activities specified in its HUD-approved five-year action plan or emergency work necessitated by unforeseen circumstances. As with all Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing approximately one million units across 2,770 agencies, the Salem Housing Authority must maintain accurate inventory data, comply with Uniform Administrative Requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200, and submit annual certifications to HUD's Information Management System to support the formula-based allocation methodology that determines annual funding awards.
