Public Housing Capital Fund Award Summary

The Housing Authority of the City of Rockwall received a $141,755 formula grant award dated April 1, 2026, from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). This award, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2030, provides funding for capital and management activities to support public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, and development activities serving low-income residents in Rockwall, Texas. Formula grant allocations under this program are calculated annually based on characteristics of each Public Housing Agency's (PHA) inventory, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs, rather than through competitive application processes.

Eligible uses of the capital funds include public housing development, modernization, construction, acquisition of additional housing units, management improvements, emergency repairs, and financing activities as outlined in 24 CFR Part 905. The Rockwall Housing Authority must implement funded activities through its approved 5-Year Action Plan or as approved by HUD for emergency work or non-presidentially declared natural disaster assistance. The recipient is required to maintain accurate public housing inventory data in HUD's Information Management System, comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, and submit to HUD audit requirements in conjunction with regular PHA operations audits.
