Formula Grant TN40P00850126

The Paris Housing Authority received a formula grant award of $577,784 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) program. The award, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, supports capital and management activities to modernize and improve public housing infrastructure serving approximately 1,000 low-income residents in Paris, Tennessee. Eligible activities funded through this grant include infrastructure modernization, facility upgrades, emergency repairs, energy efficiency improvements, and management enhancements necessary to maintain decent, safe, and sanitary housing conditions across the authority's public housing inventory.

The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as a formula-based allocation program that distributes funding to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million units. The formula calculation reflects each agency's inventory characteristics, including unit counts and building age, rather than through competitive application processes. The Paris Housing Authority, as a direct recipient, administers all funded activities without reliance on subcontractors and must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and certify its public housing inventory data in HUD's Information Management System to sustain program eligibility and funding continuity.
