Groveland Housing Authority

Groveland Housing Authority, a municipal housing authority in Groveland, Massachusetts, is a federal grant recipient (not a contractor) that receives formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing serving low-income residents. The entity is a U.S. local government structure; it does not compete for federal contracts or serve as a subcontractor.

Groveland Housing Authority's federal footprint is confined entirely to HUD's Public Housing program. Since 2022, the authority has received nine formula grants spanning two recurring grant programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. Capital Fund awards support public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and management improvements as defined in 24 CFR Part 905. Operating Fund awards support day-to-day operational expenses including management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. The most recent award, dated April 1, 2026, is a $152,060 Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant running through March 31, 2030, allocated according to HUD's formula methodology, which considers unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The authority also holds an Operating Fund award from January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2032, and earlier Capital Fund and Operating Fund awards with ultimate completion dates spanning through 2032. Combined obligated dollars across all 39 awards total $4.1 million over a span from 2006 to present.

Activity is flat — two awards per year across 2022 through 2026 — with two awards facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of the authority's federal funding, reflecting the statutory role of housing authorities as recipients of HUD's formula-based capital and operating assistance rather than competitive prime contractors. The authority must maintain accurate inventory data in HUD's Information Management System and comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, including audit and financial record-keeping obligations.
