Cleveland Housing Authority

Cleveland Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Cleveland, Texas, is a public housing authority that receives formula grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing for low-income residents. The authority operates as a grant recipient (100% of awards in the recent portfolio) with no contracting footprint — it does not hold federal contracts as a prime or subcontractor, and it does not subcontract work to federal vendors.

Cleveland Housing Authority's federal funding flows exclusively through two HUD grant programs. Under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), the authority receives formula grants to cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. Operating Fund grants span multi-year periods — the most recent award, dated January 1, 2026, runs through December 31, 2032. Under the Public Housing Capital Fund program (CFDA 14.872), the authority receives formula grants to fund public housing modernization, development, management improvements, infrastructure upgrades, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency enhancements specified in its HUD-approved five-year action plan. Capital Fund awards carry obligation periods of approximately four years; the most recent award, dated April 1, 2026, extends through March 31, 2030.

The authority has received 43 formula grants over the past twenty years, all from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, with combined dollars obligated across all awards totaling $7.3 million. Recent activity shows two awards per year from 2022 through 2025, with four grants awarded in 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The Operating Fund represents a $5 billion nationwide program serving approximately 6,000 public housing authorities; the Capital Fund serves nearly 2,770 authorities managing close to one million public housing units across all fifty states and territories. Cleveland Housing Authority's role is limited to administering federal funds as a direct recipient to serve its public housing portfolio in Cleveland, Texas — it does not compete for or manage contracts and carries no procurement footprint relevant to federal contractors seeking teaming or subcontracting relationships.
