Benson Housing Authority

Benson Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Benson, North Carolina, is a recipient of formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) programs. The authority operates solely as a prime grant recipient with no federal contract work or subcontract relationships in the source data.

Benson Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants supporting public housing modernization, development, and day-to-day operations for low-income residents in its service area. Recent representative awards include a $561,098 Public Housing Capital Fund grant (April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030) designated for capital activities such as construction, acquisition, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades; and a $490,048 Public Housing Operating Fund award (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032) covering operational expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. The authority also holds an earlier Public Housing Capital Fund grant (May 6, 2024 through May 5, 2028) and operates under multi-year Public Housing Operating Fund allocations dating back to January 1, 2022. All capital and operating expenditures comply with 24 CFR Part 905 and the Uniform Administrative Requirements under 2 CFR 200.

The authority's customer concentration is total: the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of forty awards spanning the past twenty years, with combined dollars obligated totaling $23.5 million. Activity has remained flat at two awards per year across the past five years (2022–2026), and only two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete pressure in that window. Benson Housing Authority operates as a direct recipient of formula allocations rather than a competitive prime contractor or subcontractor, making it a grant administrator rather than a federal vendor competing for task orders or delivery orders on federal contract vehicles.
