Money for Local Housing Authorities

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julián Castro has announced HUD is allocating $47,711,062 to public housing authorities in Tennessee to make needed capital improvements in their properties.
Manchester Housing Authority will receive $82,543 and the Tullahoma Housing Authority will get $313,112.
For more than 75 years, the federal government has been investing billions of dollars in developing and maintaining public housing – including providing critical support through the Capital Fund grants.  Nonetheless, there has been a net loss of over 135,000 public housing units since fiscal year 2000, representing an average loss of approximately 9,000 units annually.
