Federal Grant Award Summary

The Manchester Housing Authority received a formula grant award of $207,736 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 award supports capital and management activities for public housing serving low-income residents in Manchester, Tennessee, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and development of public housing units.

The Capital Fund award enables the Manchester Housing Authority to finance eligible activities as defined in applicable HUD regulations, with funds applied toward physical improvements to the public housing inventory, debt service and financing costs for mixed-finance developments, and management enhancements. As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, the award amount is calculated by HUD based on the authority's public housing inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The authority must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and certify its public housing inventory data annually to HUD's Information Management System to preserve eligibility for continued funding.
