Coshocton Metropolitan Housing Authority

Coshocton Metropolitan Housing Authority, doing business as Meadows, is a local government housing authority based in Coshocton, Ohio, that operates as a recipient of federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no contracting footprint and no subcontracting role.

Meadows is structured as a U.S. government entity classified as a local government housing authority and does not hold any federal contracts or contract vehicles. All of its federal activity consists of HUD formula grant awards under two programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850). The authority has received forty-two awards over the past two decades, all from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with a combined obligated value of $14 million. Recent grants include a $394,448 Public Housing Capital Fund award issued April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030, to support capital improvements, modernization, and infrastructure work on public housing units in Coshocton; a $271,259 Public Housing Operating Fund award effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, providing operating subsidies for day-to-day maintenance, property management, security, energy costs, and resident services; and an earlier $394,448 Capital Fund award issued May 6, 2024, ultimately completing May 5, 2028. Both programs are formula-based allocations administered by HUD to public housing agencies nationwide — the Capital Fund serves approximately 2,770 agencies managing nearly one million units, while the Operating Fund serves approximately 6,000 housing authorities operating 902,436 households nationally.

Meadows' customer concentration is absolute: 100% of its awards fund HUD programs. Activity has remained flat at two awards per year over the past five years, and four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing routine recompete exposure inherent to the formula-grant structure. As a municipal entity, Meadows does not compete on open or set-aside federal contracts and does not pursue subcontracting relationships with federal contractors; the authority's federal activity is limited to administering its formula grant allocations for public housing capital improvements and operations in Coshocton.
