Manistee Housing Commission

Manistee Housing Commission, doing business as Century Terrance Apartments, is a U.S. local government entity — a public housing authority based in Manistee, Michigan — that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to operate and maintain public housing facilities, acting as a prime recipient rather than a contractor.

The Commission operates exclusively within HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office programs. The vendor's award footprint consists of 59 formula-grant awards across two HUD grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which funds day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, security, energy costs, and resident supportive services; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which supports modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and development activities. Representative awards include a $127,298 Public Housing Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and an ongoing Public Housing Operating Fund award covering January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032. All 59 awards are formula-based allocations directed to the Commission's Century Terrace Apartments portfolio, a public housing facility serving low-income residents.

HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 58 of the Commission's 59 awards; HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development represents a single award. No subcontract activity appears in the source. Award activity over the past five years shows modest, consistent volume: three awards in 2022 and two awards per year in 2023 through 2026, with a combined dollars obligated total of $13.7 million across the entire award history. Three awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.

The Commission holds no federal contracts, has not qualified for contract vehicles (GWACs, IDIQs, or GSA Schedules), and competes solely for formula grant funding under the 1937 Housing Act framework, which distributes annually to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide based on inventory characteristics rather than through competitive procurement. The revenue stream is not procurement-based and does not follow standard federal contracting award mechanics or set-aside designations applicable to for-profit contractors or small-business certifications.
