Evanston Housing Authority

Evanston Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and housing authority headquartered in Evanston, Wyoming, is a federal grant recipient under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, receiving formula-based grants for public housing capital and operating fund activities across its portfolio.

Evanston Housing Authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) with no federal contract prime or subcontractor footprint. The entity receives recurring formula grants under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. Capital Fund grants support modernization, rehabilitation, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades to the authority's public housing inventory in accordance with 24 CFR Part 905 and approved five-year action plans. Operating Fund grants provide subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, including management operations, routine and preventative maintenance, security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Recent awards include a $311,148 Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032; and a Capital Fund grant effective May 13, 2025 through May 12, 2029. All thirty-eight awards in the source data are with HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, reflecting complete customer concentration within a single federal grantor.

Activity is steady and recurring: two awards per year across 2022 through 2026, with a combined $6.4 million in obligated dollars across the full source dataset. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and will require renewal or recompete within that window. Evanston Housing Authority's federal footprint is characteristic of public housing authorities nationwide — it operates as an administrator and steward of federally funded public housing stock serving low-income residents, with all federal support flowing through HUD's formula-based allocation mechanisms rather than competitive procurements or discretionary grants.
