Housing Authority Of The City Of Fayette Mo

Housing Authority Of The City Of Fayette Mo is a U.S. government entity—a municipal housing authority—that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations and capital improvements for low-income residents in Fayette, Missouri. The organization does not compete for federal contracts and operates exclusively as a grant recipient, not as a prime contractor or subcontractor.

The Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants under two primary programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. The Capital Fund grants support public housing modernization, development, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, infrastructure improvements, and general maintenance of the public housing inventory. The Operating Fund grants cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, management costs, routine preventive maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Both programs operate on formula-based allocation models that distribute funding to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies (Capital Fund) and 6,000 housing authorities (Operating Fund) nationwide based on inventory characteristics such as unit count, building age, and construction costs. The Housing Authority must comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and maintain eligible activities within its approved 5-year action plan or HUD-approved emergency work.

Recent grant activity shows a steady cadence of two awards per year from 2022 through 2026. In the past twenty-four months, four awards face ultimate completion, including a $124,869 Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and an Operating Fund grant running through December 31, 2031. The Housing Authority has drawn approximately $4.2 million in combined federal funding across forty awards since 2006, with 100% of its federal footprint sourced from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office—a single-customer concentration reflecting the nature of formula grant administration. As a local government entity, the Housing Authority serves as a prime grant recipient only, with no subcontractor relationships or contract vehicle participation.
