Sandusky Metropolitan Housing

Sandusky Metro Housing Authority, a U.S. local government housing authority based in Fremont, Ohio, is a recipient of federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office for public housing operations, modernization, and maintenance. The Authority operates as a prime recipient (100% of recent awards) under non-competitive formula-based grant programs and has no federal contracting footprint.

Sandusky Metro Housing Authority receives funding exclusively from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office under two primary grant vehicles: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. Capital Fund grants support modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and management enhancements to the Authority's public housing portfolio in Fremont, Ohio. Operating Fund grants cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Representative awards include a $161,507 Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and concurrent Operating Fund allocations running through December 31, 2031 and December 31, 2032. These grants are calculated on a formula basis reflecting public housing inventory characteristics such as unit counts and building age, with the Authority required to maintain compliance with 2 CFR 200 audit requirements and certify housing inventory data through HUD's Information Management System.

The Authority's customer concentration is absolute: all 34 awards in the portfolio come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, accounting for $4.6 million in combined federal obligations over the award history visible in the source. Activity has remained flat at approximately two awards per year across the past five years, with the most recent grant award dated April 1, 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting routine recompete cycles under HUD's formula grant framework. As a housing authority, Sandusky Metro Housing Authority does not operate as a contractor, subcontractor, or participant in federal contracting vehicles such as GWACs, IDIQs, or BPAs, and carries no set-aside designations relevant to federal procurement.
