Federal Grant Award Summary

The Bradford County Housing Authority received a $1,183,367 formula grant award 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), effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for public housing improvements serving low-income residents throughout Bradford County, Pennsylvania. As a formula-based allocation (rather than competitive award), the funding is calculated using established formulas that reflect the housing authority's public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs.

Under this grant, the Bradford County Housing Authority will utilize funds for eligible capital activities as defined in 24 CFR 905.200, including public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, development activities, management improvements, and emergency repairs. Activities must be specified in the authority's approved 5-year action plan or approved by HUD for emergency or disaster-related work. The authority is required to maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System, comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, and submit annual certifications to maintain continued funding eligibility. The Capital Fund program serves approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide managing nearly one million public housing units across all 50 states and territories.
