Federal Formula Grant Award Summary

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office awarded the Beckley Housing Authority a Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) formula grant of $754,584 effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030. This formula-based allocation supports capital and management activities to modernize and improve public housing infrastructure serving low-income residents in Beckley, West Virginia. The funding enables the housing authority to finance eligible activities including physical infrastructure improvements, modernization projects, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, code compliance work, and development of additional public housing units, as specified in the authority's approved 5-year action plan.

The Public Housing Capital Fund operates as an annual formula-based program administered by HUD to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide, collectively managing nearly one million public housing units across all 50 states and territories. Awards are calculated based on established formulas reflecting each PHA's inventory characteristics rather than through competitive application processes. The Beckley Housing Authority, serving more than 900 households in the region, must maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and utilize funds exclusively for eligible activities as defined in 24 CFR Part 905, with all capital improvements to be obligated by the established deadline and expended by March 31, 2030.
