Summary

The Montgomery County Housing Authority received a $1,529,248 formula grant award from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) program, effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. The award funds capital and management activities for public housing modernization, development, and infrastructure improvements serving low-income residents in East Norriton Township, Pennsylvania. Eligible uses of capital funds include physical improvements to public housing units, development and acquisition of additional housing inventory, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing activities such as debt service payments for mixed-finance developments.

The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as a formula-based allocation program rather than a competitive grant process, with HUD calculating annual awards based on established formulas reflecting each Public Housing Agency's inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. Grant recipients must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, document capital activities in HUD-approved five-year action plans, and maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System, with all capital improvements subject to HUD audit requirements.
