Bangs Housing Authority

Bangs Housing Authority, a local government entity based in Bangs, Texas, is a federal grant recipient that receives formula grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and improve public housing infrastructure serving low-income residents in the Bangs community. The authority functions exclusively as a prime recipient (100% of awards) with no contracting footprint and no subcontractor relationships.

Bangs Housing Authority's federal funding stream consists entirely of HUD formula grants under two programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.871, per the PH OPFUND program description) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, management and administrative costs, routine and preventative maintenance, security and anti-crime activities, energy costs, resident support services, insurance, and debt service. Capital Fund grants support public housing modernization, development, infrastructure upgrades, energy efficiency improvements, emergency repairs, and management improvements as specified in the authority's HUD-approved five-year action plan or for emergency work. Recent Capital Fund awards include a $162,586 grant dated April 1, 2026 (performance period April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030) and awards dated May 13, 2025, May 6, 2024, and February 17, 2023. Operating Fund awards run concurrently, with performance periods spanning multiple years — the January 1, 2026 Operating Fund award runs through December 31, 2032, and the January 1, 2025 award through December 31, 2031. All work is performed at the authority's location in Bangs, Texas, and the authority must comply with 2 CFR 200 uniform administrative requirements.

The authority's customer concentration is singular: all 40 awards over the past twenty years derive from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, which allocates formula grants annually to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $4.4 million. Activity is consistent and recurring — two awards per year over the past five years (2022–2026) — reflecting the formula nature of the grant programs. Three awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and will require recompete or renewal as formula funding cycles.
