Cabool Housing Authority Office

Cabool Housing Authority Office is a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority in Cabool, Missouri, that acts as a prime recipient of federal housing formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The authority does not compete as a federal contractor; it receives direct allocations under HUD's Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) programs, which together account for the entirety of its federal funding footprint.

Cabool Housing Authority Office operates exclusively within the public housing space, managing capital and operating expenses for its local public housing portfolio. The authority receives formula grant allocations calculated according to inventory characteristics—unit counts, building age, and construction costs—rather than through competitive application. Operating funds support day-to-day expenses including management and operations, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and anti-drug activities, security, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Capital funds support public housing modernization, development, facility improvements, and acquisition of additional units as specified in the authority's five-year action plan. Recent grants include $115,877 under the Public Housing Operating Fund (awarded January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2032), $106,625 under the Public Housing Capital Fund for modernization and development (awarded April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030), and $149,694 under the Public Housing Capital Fund's safety and security emergency set-aside (awarded August 3, 2026, through August 2, 2028). The $149,694 safety and security award addresses emergency needs within the same federal fiscal year and carries a maximum cap of $250,000; the authority is ineligible for additional safety and security funding for the same developments previously funded under this mechanism.

Cabool Housing Authority Office's customer concentration is absolute—100% of its 46 awards over twenty years come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. The authority has obligated $4.1 million cumulatively across its federal award footprint. Activity has remained modest and relatively flat, with four awards in 2022, declining to two in 2023, rebounding to four in 2024, and two in 2025, with three awards recorded in 2026 to date. Three awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, representing recompete opportunity for formula grant renewal under the standing HUD programs.
