Burrton Housing Authority

Burrton Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Burrton, Kansas, receives formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, capital improvements, and modernization across its portfolio. The authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of its 43 awards in the source data) with no federal contract prime or subcontract work and no participation in federal contract vehicles.

The authority's federal footprint is entirely concentrated with a single customer agency — the Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office, which funds all 43 awards in the source data. Burrton Housing Authority receives recurring formula grants under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which provides operating subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, management costs, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which finances public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and related capital activities as described in 24 CFR Part 905. Representative awards include a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion March 12, 2029; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2026, extending through December 31, 2032; and a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030. All grants are formula grants distributed to public housing agencies nationwide under Section 9 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937.

Activity has been modest and irregular over the past five years — two awards annually in 2022, 2024, 2025, and 2026, with a spike to five awards in 2023. The combined dollars obligated across all 43 awards total approximately $970 thousand, indicating that individual award values are small formula-grant tranches rather than large capital or operating commitments in the source snapshot. Seven awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore face renewal or recompete in that window. As a public housing authority, Burrton Housing Authority does not compete on federal contracts or subcontracts and does not maintain positions on federal contract vehicles; its federal footprint is limited to HUD grant administration and compliance.
