Goldthwaite Housing Authority

Goldthwaite Housing Authority, a local government entity headquartered in Goldthwaite, Texas, is a federal grant recipient administering public housing operating and capital modernization funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The authority does not hold federal contracts or sit on contract vehicles; its entire federal footprint consists of formula grants under two HUD programs spanning operations and capital improvements.

Goldthwaite Housing Authority receives recurring annual formula grants under the Public Housing Operating Fund (which funds day-to-day operational, maintenance, and administrative expenses for public housing units) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (which supports housing modernization, development, and management improvements). Recent awards include a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2025, with ultimate completion on December 31, 2031; a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded May 13, 2025, completing May 12, 2029; and a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, completing March 31, 2030. These are formula grants distributed to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide under the Housing Act of 1937, as amended. The authority's obligations are exclusively with HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office — 100% of awards across the source data.

Activity has remained flat at two awards per year over the past five years (2022–2026), with combined dollars obligated across all awards standing at $2.2 million. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting modest recompete opportunity for subcontractors or service providers positioned to support capital or operational work. The authority's grant structure is formulaic rather than competitive; it does not issue solicitations for federal contracting but receives direct appropriations under statutory entitlement programs. Federal contractors seeking to engage Goldthwaite Housing Authority would do so through sub-award or vendor relationships under the authority's use of operating and capital funds for eligible activities — routine and preventative maintenance, security, energy costs, IT modernization platforms, construction, and acquisition of housing units.
