Summary

The Housing Authority of the County of Dauphin received a $2,076,864 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) effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, development, and financing of public housing units serving low-income residents in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.

The Capital Fund grant enables the Housing Authority to execute eligible capital projects as specified in its HUD-approved 5-Year Action Plan, including infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and the development or acquisition of additional public housing units. The funding supports activities directly tied to maintaining and enhancing the physical condition and operational efficiency of the Authority's public housing inventory, with expenditures limited to eligible activities defined in 24 CFR Part 905. As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, the award amount is calculated by HUD using established formulas that reflect the Authority's public housing inventory characteristics, such as unit counts and building age.
