Formula Grant TX01P24250126

The Edgewood Housing Authority received a $130,692 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 for public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs as specified in the Authority's approved 5-year action plan. Eligible activities funded through this grant include construction and acquisition of additional public housing units, rehabilitation and modernization of existing public housing inventory, energy efficiency upgrades, financing costs for standard and mixed-finance developments, and management improvements necessary to serve low-income residents in Edgewood, Texas.

As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, the Public Housing Capital Fund distributes annual funding to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million units based on established formulas reflecting each agency's public housing inventory characteristics. The Edgewood Housing Authority, a registered local government entity since February 2008, utilizes these capital funds in conjunction with its Public Housing Operating Fund to maintain safe and sanitary housing conditions and support critical housing services for vulnerable populations including elderly residents and families with children throughout its service area.
