Housing Authority Augusta

Housing Authority of the City of Augusta, a non-profit public housing authority based in Augusta, Arkansas, is a federal grant recipient operating exclusively under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization receives formula grants to fund public housing modernization, operations, and maintenance serving approximately 1,000 public housing units for low-income families, elderly residents, and persons with disabilities in Augusta.

Housing Authority Augusta operates as a prime recipient across all recent federal awards, with no subcontractor or sub-recipient activity. The organization's entire federal footprint consists of HUD formula grants under two program vehicles: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850). Recent named awards include a $324,481 Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, with completion March 31, 2030, supporting capital and management activities including modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and development activities; and a $162,718 Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032, covering day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation.

The organization has received 34 awards since 2006, all from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with combined federal dollars obligated at $8.3 million. Award velocity holds steady at two awards per year across the past five years (2022–2026), reflecting the formula-driven, predictable nature of HUD's annual allocation cycle. Two awards carry ultimate completion dates inside the next twenty-four months, creating a modest recompete exposure window tied to HUD's regular grant renewal cycle. Housing Authority Augusta operates as a direct HUD grantee without federal contracting vehicles, prime contractor relationships, or subcontracting engagement; it competes in a non-competitive formula allocation framework reserved for certified public housing authorities rather than in open federal procurements.
