City Of Crookston

City Of Crookston, operating as the Crookston Housing and Economic Development Authority, is a local government housing authority that receives formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to fund public housing operations, modernization, and capital improvements in Crookston, Minnesota. As a prime recipient in the federal grant landscape, the vendor does not hold federal contracts and operates exclusively under HUD's Public Housing programs (CFDA 14.850 and 14.872).

The housing authority's grant footprint is entirely concentrated within HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. Recent awards include a $159,485 Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded August 3, 2026 (ultimate completion December 31, 2030), a $109,238 Public Housing Capital Fund award from April 1, 2026 (completion March 31, 2030), and recurring formula allocations under both programs spanning 2022 through 2026. The Public Housing Operating Fund underwrites day-to-day operational expenses including management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative expenses. Public Housing Capital Fund grants support modernization, development, and management improvements eligible under 24 CFR Part 905, specified in approved five-year action plans or approved by HUD for emergency work or work necessitated by non-presidentially declared natural disasters. Performance occurs at the housing authority's location in Crookston, Minnesota.

Over the past five years, the vendor received six awards in 2026, two each in 2022, 2023, and 2025, and three in 2024, reflecting modest but recent activity acceleration. The vendor's 50-award portfolio, spanning back to 2006, carries a combined obligated value of $4.2 million and represents 98% prime grant receipts, with one sub-grant award from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety under Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) 4658 in May 2024. HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 42 of 50 awards (84% by count); HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development holds 7 awards; the Federal Emergency Management Agency Headquarters Financial Assistance Awards division holds 1 award. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, positioning modest recompete exposure. The vendor's role is formulaic grant administration typical of public housing authorities within the HUD system — no contract vehicles, no set-aside posture, and no subcontracting depth characterize this operator.
