Bedford Township Housing Commission

Bedford Township Housing Commission, operating as the Ivor J Lindsey Senior Housing Complex, is a U.S. government entity—specifically a public housing authority—and a recipient of federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office for public housing operations and capital improvements in Temperance, Michigan. The organization does not hold federal contracts or compete for procurement; it receives mandatory allocations under two primary HUD grant programs serving its portfolio of low-income and elderly housing units.

Bedford Township Housing Commission is the sole grant recipient across its entire federal footprint, drawing all 41 recent awards exclusively from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The authority receives recurring formula-grant allocations under two statutory programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.870), which provides operating subsidies for day-to-day maintenance, utilities, security, resident services, and administrative expenses; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which funds capital modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and development activities as defined under 24 CFR Part 905. Awards are not competitively awarded; instead, HUD calculates allocations using statutory formulas based on the housing authority's inventory characteristics including unit counts, building age, and construction costs.

The organization's recent grant activity shows consistent annual receipts: two awards per year across 2022 through 2026, with combined dollars obligated totaling $5.4 million across the four-year window. Representative awards include a $202,853 Public Housing Capital Fund allocation effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant running January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032; and a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025 with ultimate completion May 12, 2029. Four awards face completion within the next twenty-four months, representing potential reallocation or renewal actions in Bedford Township Housing Commission's grant portfolio. The source data spans awards from 2006 onward, indicating sustained participation in HUD's public housing subsidy programs over two decades.
