Bruce Housing Authority

Bruce Housing Authority, a local government housing agency based in Bruce, Wisconsin, receives formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing capital and operating activities as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards). The authority is a U.S. government entity operating as a municipal housing authority with no federal contracting activity; all federal engagement is through HUD formula grants allocated under statutory entitlement rather than competitive procurement.

Bruce Housing Authority's entire federal footprint derives from two recurring HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (PH OPFUND). The Capital Fund grants support public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and infrastructure enhancements within the scope of 24 CFR Part 905, using funds either for activities specified in the authority's approved 5-year action plan or for HUD-approved emergency work. A representative Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025 carries a four-year performance period ending May 12, 2029. The Operating Fund grants subsidize day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, and administrative program implementation under Section 9 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937. A representative Operating Fund award dated January 1, 2026 runs through December 31, 2032. The source does not disclose dollar magnitudes for individual awards; the combined obligated amount across all thirty-six awards in the portfolio is $2.2 million.

Bruce Housing Authority's customer base is monolithic — all thirty-six awards fund HUD Public and Indian Housing Office programs. The authority receives formula allocations on a regular cycle tied to statutory entitlement and actual receipt of funds. Activity has remained flat year over year across the past five years (two awards per year from 2022 through 2026), consistent with the predictable administrative rhythm of formula-grant program administration. Three awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and will require renewal or reallocation under the recurring annual or multi-year funding cycles that govern public housing finance. Work is performed in Bruce, Wisconsin.
