Lemmon Housing & Redevelopment Co

Lemmon Housing & Redevelopment Co, the Housing & Redevelopment Commission of the City of Lemmon, is a U.S. government entity operating as a public housing authority based in Lemmon, South Dakota. The organization receives formula grants exclusively from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office to administer public housing programs — it holds no federal contracts and operates 100% as a grant recipient with no subcontract relationships.

Lemmon Housing & Redevelopment's federal grant portfolio centers on two core HUD formula programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund and the Public Housing Capital Fund. The Public Housing Operating Fund provides ongoing operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. The Public Housing Capital Fund finances public housing development, modernization, management improvements, and capital activities specified in approved five-year action plans or approved for emergency work. Recent grants include a Public Housing Operating Fund award dated January 1, 2025, running through December 31, 2031; a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated April 1, 2026, extending to March 31, 2030; and a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025, with completion on May 12, 2029.

The organization's federal footprint is narrow and stable. Across the past five years, Lemmon Housing & Redevelopment received between two and three awards annually, with a combined total of 49 federal grants since at least 2006, obligating $2.9 million in aggregate dollars. All 49 awards flow from a single customer agency — HUD Public and Indian Housing Office — with zero diversification into other federal departments or agencies. Four awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Lemmon Housing & Redevelopment is a subordinate entity of the City of Lemmon, a municipal government; the city itself holds HUD grant prime-recipient status as the overarching local government entity.

Federal contractors seeking partnership or subcontract opportunities with Lemmon Housing & Redevelopment should recognize it as a small local public housing authority managing modest capital and operating grants rather than a procurement entity. The organization does not serve as a prime contractor or place subcontracts; it receives and administers HUD formula grants directed at local public housing asset management and resident services for a small South Dakota community.
