Delano EDA / Crow River VLG

Delano EDA / Crow River VLG, doing business as Crow River Villa Apartments, is a U.S. local government housing authority based in Delano, Minnesota, that receives federal operating and capital grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to manage and maintain public housing units under formula grant programs.

The entity is a city and county government structure classified as a housing authority (County, City, Inter-municipal business type). It does not serve as a federal contractor or hold prime contract vehicles; its entire federal footprint consists of direct grant funding as a prime recipient from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization operates exclusively under two federal grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA component) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA component). Operating Fund grants support day-to-day expenses including management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. Capital Fund grants support public housing modernization, development, and management improvements for activities described in 24 CFR Part 905, including construction, acquisition of additional units, and emergency work.

Delano EDA / Crow River VLG has received 40 prime federal grants entirely from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office since 2006, with a combined obligation of $1.5 million. Recent awards include Public Housing Operating Fund grants dated January 1, 2025 (completing December 31, 2031), August 3, 2026 (completing December 31, 2030), and January 1, 2026 (completing December 31, 2032), and Public Housing Capital Fund grants dated May 13, 2025 (completing May 12, 2029), April 1, 2026 (completing March 31, 2030), and May 6, 2024 (completing May 5, 2028). The entity holds no federal contracts, serves a single customer agency (HUD), and operates no federal contract vehicles or subcontracts. Award volume has remained modest and flat — two awards in both 2024 and 2025, three in 2026 — with only two awards completing within the next twenty-four months. The vendor's federal engagement is limited to the formula grant mechanism; it does not compete for, hold, or perform work under federal IDIQs, GWACs, BPAs, or competitive solicitations.
