Summary

The Crockett Housing Authority received a Formula Grant award of $823,760 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), effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. The Capital Fund provides annual formula-based allocations to Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) nationwide for capital and management activities supporting low-income housing. This award enables the Crockett Housing Authority to fund public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and related capital activities in accordance with its approved 5-year action plan and applicable federal regulations in 24 CFR Part 905.

The funds support essential capital improvements and management activities for the Housing Authority's public housing portfolio serving low-income residents, elderly populations, and individuals with disabilities in Crockett, Texas. Eligible uses of the funding include property modernization, development or acquisition of additional public housing units, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, financing activities including debt service payments, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, and administrative operations. Awards under the Public Housing Capital Fund are allocated through a formula methodology based on each PHA's inventory characteristics rather than through competitive application processes, with obligated amounts announced within 60 days of annual appropriations enactment.
