Alma Housing Authority

Alma Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Alma, Georgia, is a recipient of federal housing grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, operating exclusively under HUD's formula grant programs for public housing capital improvements and operational subsidies.

The authority operates as a direct grant recipient with no federal contract prime or subcontract activity. Its entire federal footprint consists of 78 awards distributed across two formula grant programs under CFDA 14.872 (Public Housing Capital Fund) and CFDA 14.850 (Public Housing Operating Fund), all issued by HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. The Capital Fund grants, effective April 2026 through March 2030 ($876,921 awarded) and prior cycles, support public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and debt service payments for Alma's housing stock. The Operating Fund grants, with multiple tranches awarded and in-force from January 2025 through December 2032 (totaling approximately $478,603 across three separate recent awards), fund day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. The authority's activities conform to 24 CFR Part 905 for capital work and the Housing Act of 1937 for operations, with all expenditures subject to 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and HUD oversight.

Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, all tied to existing operating and capital fund cycles.
