City Of Pooler

The City of Pooler, a municipal government entity in Pooler, Georgia, receives federal grant funding as a recipient for roadway safety planning, community development, and disaster response initiatives. The city operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards); it does not hold federal contracts, IDVs, or contract vehicles and does not subcontract federal work.

The City of Pooler's federal footprint spans four distinct grantor agencies across ten awards dating to 2009, with combined obligated dollars of $10.6 million. The Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development account for eight of the ten awards. FEMA's most recent active grant, awarded November 7, 2009, remains listed in the source data; HUD CPD issued four awards on February 17, 2023, all under the Economic Development Initiative, Community Project Funding, and Miscellaneous Grants program, with ultimate completion dates of August 31, 2031. The Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration awarded the city a $240,000 project grant on May 26, 2026, under the Safe Streets and Roads for All program (CFDA 20.939) for development and implementation of a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan; the award runs through November 26, 2028 and supports data analysis, stakeholder engagement, and identification of targeted infrastructure and behavioral safety strategies to prevent roadway fatalities and serious injuries.

Activity has been sparse and episodic rather than steady: one award each in 2013, 2014, and 2018, then four awards clustered in 2023, and one in 2026. The source does not provide dollar magnitudes for the HUD CPD awards or characterize the scope of the 2009–2018 work. The city's corporate structure includes the Pooler Development Authority as a subsidiary; the source does not indicate whether the Development Authority holds separate federal awards or operates as a pass-through for city grants.
