Town Of Catskill Housing Authority

Town Of Catskill Housing Authority, a local government housing authority located in Catskill, New York, receives formula grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and modernize public housing inventory. The authority is a U.S. government entity classified as a local government-owned housing authority; it does not compete for federal contracts as a prime contractor or subcontractor, and instead operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient under HUD's public housing programs.

The authority's entire federal footprint consists of forty awards, all originating from a single customer — HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office — across two formula grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA not separately numbered in the source) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The Operating Fund awards support day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, energy costs, anti-crime and security activities, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service on public housing units. The Capital Fund awards finance modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and management improvements to the public housing inventory. Recent Capital Fund awards include a $305,196 grant effective April 1, 2026 with completion March 31, 2030, and a prior Capital Fund grant dated May 13, 2025 with completion May 12, 2029. Operating Fund awards run on overlapping cycles; the most recent award is effective January 1, 2026 with completion December 31, 2032.

Activity has remained flat at two awards per year for the past five years (2022–2026), with combined dollars obligated across all forty awards totaling $7.1 million. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting renewal and recompete opportunity. The authority's role is that of a prime recipient in all cases — it receives funds directly from HUD and administers public housing operations and capital improvements for Catskill residents under 24 CFR Part 905 and 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements. As a local government entity and public housing authority, the Town Of Catskill Housing Authority does not engage in federal contracting or subcontracting relationships; it operates as a direct beneficiary of federal grant programs serving nearly one million public housing units nationwide across approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies.
