Falmouth Housing Authority

Falmouth Housing Authority, a Massachusetts municipal housing authority, receives federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to fund public housing operations and capital improvements for low-income residents in Falmouth. The authority operates as a grant recipient, not a federal contractor; all 74 recent awards are prime grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with zero subcontract activity.

Falmouth Housing Authority's federal footprint is concentrated entirely within HUD's formula-grant programs. The authority holds recurring awards under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The Operating Fund awards, such as the $128,085 grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, fund day-to-day operational expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative costs. Capital Fund awards, including the $672,957 grant awarded April 1, 2026 with completion March 31, 2030, support public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and infrastructure repairs across the authority's units. The authority also participates in HUD's Jobs-Plus Pilot Initiative, a project grant awarded June 1, 2025 and running through May 31, 2028, which supports employment and economic self-sufficiency activities for residents.

HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of awards across the portfolio: 64 awards from that office and 10 awards from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development division. The authority has received annual formula grants consistently across the past five years (three to four awards annually from 2022 through 2026), with $21.9 million in combined dollars obligated across the full award history. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, presenting renewal scheduling requirements. All expenditures are subject to 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, and the authority must maintain inventory records and annual certifications for HUD compliance.
