Auburn Housing Authority

Auburn Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Auburn, Maine, receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, maintenance, modernization, and development activities serving low-income families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities.

Auburn Housing Authority operates exclusively as a prime grant recipient under two HUD formula grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). All 43 awards in the source data are prime grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no subcontract or sub-recipient activity. The authority has received consistent formula-based allocations over the past five years, with two awards in 2022, three in 2023, two in 2024, two in 2025, and three in 2026, for a combined obligation of $19.5 million across all awards.

Recent grant awards include $437,117 from the Public Housing Operating Fund awarded January 1, 2026, covering day-to-day operational expenses, management and operations, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative costs through December 31, 2032; $492,874 from the Public Housing Capital Fund awarded April 1, 2026, supporting modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, development activities, and financing for public housing units through March 31, 2030; and a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated August 3, 2026, extending through December 31, 2030, for capital and management activities. The Public Housing Operating Fund is a nationwide $5 billion program serving approximately 1.59 million residents across roughly 902,000 households; the Public Housing Capital Fund serves approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide managing nearly one million units.

Place of performance for all awards is Auburn, Maine. Within the next twenty-four months, three awards reach ultimate completion dates and face recompete. Auburn Housing Authority's award activity has remained relatively flat, with no growth trajectory, reflecting the formula-grant nature of these allocations rather than competitive procurement cycles. The authority's federal footprint is singular and non-diversified: all customer agency exposure flows through the HUD Public and Indian Housing Office, presenting no teaming, vehicle, or multi-agency posture for federal contractor relationship-building.
