Housing Authority Of Bardstown Inc.

Housing Authority Of Bardstown Inc., a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Bardstown, Kentucky, operates as a public housing authority and federal grant recipient administering HUD formula grants for public housing capital and operating expenses. The organization holds no federal contracts; all 36 awards in its federal portfolio are formula grants administered directly by the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, placing it outside the federal contractor competitive space.

The Housing Authority receives recurring annual allocations under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which funds modernization, infrastructure improvements, development of additional units, and emergency repairs to the existing housing stock; and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which supports day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, security, energy costs, resident services, and administrative program implementation. Recent awards include a $655,840 Capital Fund grant (award date April 1, 2026, completion March 31, 2030) and a $198,947 Operating Fund grant (award date January 1, 2026, completion December 31, 2032). These are formula-based allocations tied to the authority's public housing inventory characteristics—unit counts, building age, construction costs—rather than competitive applications; all expenditures must comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements.

The organization exhibits a flat activity profile at approximately two awards per year over the past five years, with a combined obligated value of $15 million across all 36 awards since 2006. Customer concentration is absolute: 100% of awards flow from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. Four awards face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and will cycle into new grant cycles per HUD's annual award calendar. The Housing Authority operates exclusively as a prime grant recipient with no subcontractor relationships; its federal role is to administer housing assistance and capital improvement funds for low-income residents in Bardstown rather than to supply goods, services, or labor to federal agencies.
