Public Housing Capital Fund Award Summary

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office awarded the Georgetown Housing Authority a formula grant of $400,008 under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) program, with an award date of April 1, 2026, and a completion deadline of March 31, 2030. This funding supports capital and management activities for public housing operations in Georgetown, Texas, including modernization, infrastructure improvements, development of public housing units, and emergency repairs. The Capital Fund enables the Housing Authority to enhance the quality and safety of affordable housing for low-income families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities served by the agency.

The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as a formula-based allocation program that distributes annual grants to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide serving nearly one million public housing units across all 50 states and territories. Awards are calculated using established formulas based on each PHA's public housing inventory characteristics rather than through competitive application processes. Eligible activities funded under this award must be specified in an approved five-year action plan or approved by HUD for emergency work, and may include development, modernization, financing activities, and infrastructure improvements as described in 24 CFR Part 905.
