Formula Grant TN37P03450126

The Jellico Housing Authority received a $362,520 formula grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund program (CFDA 14.872), effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. This award supports capital and management activities for public housing modernization, development, and infrastructure improvements serving the Jellico, Tennessee community. Eligible uses of these funds include construction and rehabilitation of public housing units, energy efficiency upgrades, code compliance work, emergency repairs, and related capital improvements to ensure housing units meet minimum living standards.

As a formula-based allocation program, the Capital Fund distributes resources to Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) annually based on established formulas reflecting inventory characteristics such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes. The Jellico Housing Authority must utilize these capital funds only for activities specified in its approved 5-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work, and must maintain accurate inventory data and comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements. The funding provides critical support for the Authority's ongoing capital improvement and modernization initiatives across its public housing portfolio.
