Hopkinsville Housing Authority

Hopkinsville Housing Authority, a U.S. government housing authority headquartered in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, operates as a recipient of federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Public and Indian Housing Office, with no federal contract activity or subcontracting relationships. The authority receives recurring allocations under the Public Housing Capital Fund program (CFDA 14.872) to support modernization, development, and management of public housing units serving low-income residents in Hopkinsville.

HHA's federal funding stream is concentrated entirely with HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office across 61 awards spanning twenty years (first award July 2006, most recent April 2026). The authority has obligated $34.3 million across this period, with awards issued annually at a steady clip of one per year across the past five years. As a Public Housing Agency, HHA holds eligibility under a formula-based allocation model that distributes capital funding to approximately 2,770 PHAs nationwide managing nearly one million units; HHA receives its share without submitting competitive applications, with HUD calculating annual amounts based on inventory characteristics including unit counts, building age, and construction costs. Recent award examples include a $381,005 formula grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030; a prior allocation awarded May 13, 2025 with ultimate completion May 12, 2029; and earlier allocations dating to 2022 and 2021. Eligible uses for these funds include public housing development, modernization, infrastructure enhancements, energy efficiency upgrades, code compliance work, emergency repairs, and non-routine maintenance, with spending constrained to activities specified in an approved 5-Year Action Plan or HUD-approved emergency work.

Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing the near-term recompete or renewal cycle. HHA operates as sole recipient on all federal awards with no subcontractor engagements, meaning the authority manages grant administration and capital deployment directly rather than through third-party prime-sub relationships.
