Dunbar Housing Authority

Dunbar Housing Authority, a U.S. local government housing authority based in Dunbar, West Virginia, receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing stock serving low-income residents and elderly households in its service area. The authority acts as a grant recipient (not a contractor) and does not hold federal contracts or serve as a subcontractor; all 39 awards in recent activity are federal grants under the Public Housing programs.

Dunbar Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD Public and Indian Housing Office formula grants across two primary programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) supports capital and management activities including modernization, development, construction, rehabilitation, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, and emergency repairs. Recent awards include a $130,979 Public Housing Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, and a $293,975 Public Housing Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. Earlier capital grants awarded in May 2025 and May 2024 carry completion dates through May 2029 and May 2028 respectively. Operating Fund grants issued in January 2025 run through December 2031, with prior-year operating fund allocations distributed in January 2024, 2023, and 2022.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office is the sole funding agency across all 39 awards in the source data, representing 100% of Dunbar Housing Authority's recent federal grant activity. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $8.7 million, distributed as recurring annual and multi-year formula allocations. Activity has remained flat at two awards per year over the past five years (2022 through 2026). Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, representing renewal or reallocation windows for those grant periods. The authority has no federal contracting footprint, no parent vehicles or IDIQs, and no subcontractor relationships in the federal space.
