Clearfield County Housing Authority

Clearfield County Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and county housing authority headquartered in Clearfield, Pennsylvania, receives federal grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to operate and maintain public housing units serving low-income residents in Clearfield County. The Authority acts as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) under HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office and does not hold federal contracts or serve as a federal contractor.

Clearfield County Housing Authority's federal grant portfolio consists entirely of recurring formula grants from HUD under two primary programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides annual operating subsidies covering day-to-day expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and administrative program implementation. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides multi-year capital grants supporting modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation of public housing units. A representative recent award includes a $656,276 formula grant under CFDA 14.872 effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and a $210,485 formula grant under CFDA 14.850 effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032. These are non-competitive allocations calculated using HUD's formula methodology based on the Authority's public housing inventory characteristics; the Authority must direct funds only toward HUD-approved 5-Year Action Plan activities or emergency work necessitated by natural disasters, and must maintain detailed records subject to audit under 2 CFR 200.

The Authority has received 42 awards since 2006, with consistent two-award-per-year activity across the past five years. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $16.9 million. Customer concentration is absolute — all 42 awards come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure for the Authority's ongoing formula grant allocations.
