Public Housing Operating Fund federal funding in Rhode Island

Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) shows $238,264,537 in USAspending.gov obligations with Rhode Island as place of performance. The extract stores 386 awards behind that total. The join is a HUD listing crossed with a state location field, not Rhode Island's entire budget and not a census of public-housing units or a count of residents. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

  • CFDA 14.850 in Rhode Island shows $238,264,537 in USAspending obligations on 386 awards.

Rhode Island x 14.850 is a public-housing operating join, not a unit census

This page pairs CFDA 14.850, PUBLIC HOUSING OPERATING FUND, with Rhode Island place of performance. The Public Housing Operating Fund, in program language, is a HUD listing that helps public housing agencies cover operating costs of public housing. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $238,264,537 on 386 awards. The extract does not list units, agencies named, or occupancy rates. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state needs the program more, and not a claim that 386 awards equal that many local offices.

Other HUD listings — Public Housing Capital Fund, Section 8, or different operating codes — sit outside $238,264,537 unless they also carry 14.850. Mixing the Operating Fund with Section 8 or the Capital Fund would invent a combined HUD housing figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and local need statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. Place of performance as Rhode Island locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $238,264,537 in the state treasury, and it does not prove every dollar stayed inside Rhode Island after subawards.

Operating-fund obligations are not PHA bills already paid

Assistance awards often obligate to a state or recipient and draw as activities proceed. The $238,264,537 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of utility and staff bills already settled and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. An agency allocation table dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 14.850, Rhode Island geography, and the obligation metric.

The listing title is Public Housing Operating Fund. This extract does not split utilities from staffing, and it does not list developments. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond the packet facts. This page will not invent an activity-type share. Operating-fund awards can post as hundreds of PHA-level rows across years. Do not convert 386 awards into a map of Rhode Island developments. The mean obligation is a mechanical ratio, not a typical PHA allocation published by HUD.

Mixing those shelves would invent a share of HUD spending the packet never computed. The $238,264,537 figure is the tagged pair only.
