Federal Grant Award Summary

The York Housing Authority received a $399,922 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 program (CFDA 14.872), effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities essential to maintaining and improving the Authority's public housing portfolio, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and development of public housing units. The Capital Fund formula allocation is based on established criteria reflecting the Authority's public housing inventory characteristics, such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through a competitive application process.

Under this award, the York Housing Authority will utilize the capital funds exclusively for eligible activities specified in its approved five-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work and repairs necessitated by non-presidentially declared natural disasters. As a local public housing agency, the Authority must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, document all capital fund expenditures and budgets for HUD and independent auditor review, and certify the accuracy of its public housing inventory information in HUD's Information Management System. These capital improvements directly support the Authority's mission of providing safe, decent, and sanitary housing to low-income families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities in York, South Carolina.
