Alliance Housing Authority

Alliance Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority headquartered in Alliance, Nebraska, receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing capital improvements, operating expenses, and emergency safety measures for low-income residents in its jurisdiction.

Alliance Housing Authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient, not as a federal contractor. The organization has received 41 federal awards across its entire award history, all from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with combined obligated dollars of $6.3 million. The authority does not bid for federal contracts, does not hold seats on GWACs or other contract vehicles, and has no contract prime or subcontractor role in the federal marketplace. All awards are prime-recipient grants; there are no sub-awards or teaming relationships.

The authority's federal funding derives entirely from two formula grant programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides ongoing subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. Recent operating grants include a $114,533 award effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, and a prior award effective January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2031. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) supports capital and management activities including public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, emergency repairs, and management enhancements. Recent capital grants include a $207,239 award effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030 (the most recent award), a $0 award dated May 13, 2025 with completion through May 12, 2029, and a $0 award dated May 6, 2024 with completion through May 5, 2028. The authority also received an emergency safety and security grant (maximum award $250,000) dated June 20, 2024 with completion through June 19, 2026, providing one-time assistance for safety and security needs in response to crime and drug-related activity.

Award frequency has remained flat at approximately two awards per year over the past five years. Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. As a local government housing authority, Alliance Housing Authority does not compete for federal contracts and represents no procurement opportunity for federal contractors; the organization is a recipient of HUD formula grants distributed to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide serving nearly one million units.
