Hot Springs Housing Authority

Hot Springs Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Hot Springs, North Carolina, is a federal grant recipient operating under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The Authority does not hold federal contracts or contract vehicles; all federal activity derives from HUD formula grants for public housing operations and capital improvements.

Hot Springs Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of recurring formula grant awards from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office across two programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA not specified in source) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The Authority has received 43 awards since 2006, with $5.7 million obligated across all periods. Recent activity shows consistent biennial awards — two awards in each of 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026. The most recent award is a $194,021 Public Housing Capital Fund grant (April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030) supporting capital and management activities including physical modernization of existing units, development or acquisition of additional public housing units, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and related management improvements. Operating Fund grants (January 1 periods extending through December 31) support day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Capital Fund grants carry ultimate completion dates spanning four to five years; the Authority's current capital grant matures May 12, 2029, and an operating grant runs through December 31, 2032.

As a formula-grant recipient rather than a competitive grantee, the Authority's allocation reflects its public housing inventory characteristics such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs. All 43 awards are prime recipient grants; the Authority holds no subrecipient or subcontractor relationships. Customer concentration is absolute — 100% of awards originate from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no exposure to other federal agencies. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing routine recompete cycles within HUD's formula-grant administration cycle. The Authority must maintain compliance with 24 CFR Part 905 and the Uniform Administrative Requirements in 2 CFR 200, and submit annual certifications to HUD's Information Management System to sustain eligibility for ongoing formula-based allocations.
