City Of Tuskegee

City of Tuskegee, a municipal government entity headquartered in Tuskegee, Alabama, receives federal grant funding as a prime recipient for local infrastructure, safety planning, and community development projects across transportation, aviation, emergency management, and environmental remediation. The City operates as a child entity under its parent, the Utilities Board of the City of Tuskegee, a tax-exempt non-profit organization, and holds no federal contracts or contract vehicles; all recent activity is grant-based.

City of Tuskegee's grant portfolio concentrates heavily on airport infrastructure and regional economic development. The Federal Aviation Administration's Southern Region dominates the customer base, accounting for 11 awards spanning runway rehabilitation, apron pavement rehabilitation, and taxiway reconstruction at Tuskegee Airport. Recent FAA awards include a $2.1 million project grant (September 2025) to rehabilitate 5,000 feet of Runway 13/31 and a $533,684 project grant (September 2025) for the final phase of 11,000 square yards of apron pavement rehabilitation, both scheduled for completion in 2029. The FAA also awarded a $210,056 formula grant (September 2025) for a second phase of apron work. Beyond aviation, the Federal Highway Administration awarded the City a $1.4 million Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) planning grant (March 2026, CFDA 20.939) to develop a comprehensive roadway safety action plan, with completion anticipated in March 2028. The Appalachian Regional Commission funded two project grants for community infrastructure ($957,720, November 2023) and business site development ($578,155, August 2023) under the Appalachian Area Development program (CFDA 23.002). The Federal Emergency Management Agency provided a $329,999 Assistance to Firefighters Grant (September 2022) for firefighting equipment, and the Environmental Protection Agency Region 4 awarded $300,000 (October 2021) under the Brownfields Multipurpose, Assessment, and Cleanup program (CFDA 66.818) for site inventory, characterization, and cleanup planning.

Activity has been episodic—five awards in 2021, one in 2022, three in 2023, four in 2025, and one in 2026—with only two awards reaching completion within the next twenty-four months, creating minimal recompete exposure in that window. The City holds one sub-award, a Community Development Block Grant sub-award (March 2025) from the Utilities Board of the City of Tuskegee for water and street improvements. Combined dollar obligations across all 43 awards total $16.7 million, with fourteen distinct customer agencies represented across federal infrastructure, safety, and community development programs.
