Formula Grant TX59P38050126

The Housing Authority of Rockdale, Texas received a formula grant award of $204,907 from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund program (CFDA 14.872). The award, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, provides funding for capital and management activities including public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and related eligible activities as specified in 24 CFR Part 905. The Housing Authority will utilize these funds to support improvements to its public housing inventory serving low-income residents within its jurisdiction.

Under the Public Housing Capital Fund program, the Housing Authority must allocate resources toward activities outlined in its approved five-year action plan or emergency work approved by HUD. Eligible activities may include construction and acquisition of additional public housing units, facility modernization, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing activities such as debt service payments for standard and mixed-finance developments. As a formula-based allocation rather than a competitive grant, the award amount reflects HUD's standardized calculation based on the Housing Authority's inventory characteristics, including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The Housing Authority must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and certify its public housing inventory data in HUD's Information Management System to maintain program eligibility.
