Housing Authority City Como

Housing Authority City Como, doing business as Como Hoousing Authority, is a U.S. public housing authority based in Como, Texas that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and modernize public housing units. As a government entity, it functions as a federal grant recipient rather than a federal contractor and does not hold federal contract vehicles or subcontract positions.

Como Hoousing Authority's federal footprint consists exclusively of HUD grants under two complementary programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides annual operating subsidies to cover day-to-day maintenance, management, routine and preventative repairs, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, and administrative expenses for the authority's public housing portfolio. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) furnishes multiyear capital grants for public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and facility upgrades aligned with the authority's HUD-approved five-year action plan. Recent awards in the source include an Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2026 with ultimate completion December 31, 2032; a Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026 with completion March 31, 2030; a Capital Fund grant awarded May 13, 2025 running through May 12, 2029; and prior Capital Fund and Operating Fund awards spanning completion dates through 2031. The authority has received 39 total federal awards in the source data, with two awards facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.

All awards flow directly to Como Hoousing Authority as prime recipient; the authority does not subcontract grant work or function in subordinate grant roles. The combined dollars obligated across all source awards total $1.2 million. Award volume has remained stable at approximately two grants per year across the 2022–2026 period. Customer concentration is absolute — 100% of awards fund HUD Public and Indian Housing Office programs — reflecting the formula-grant structure of these programs, which distribute HUD capital and operating funds to housing authorities according to needs-based allocation methodology rather than competitive procurement.
