Housing Authority Of Belleville

Housing Authority Of Belleville, a local government entity and U.S. public housing authority headquartered in Belleville, Kansas, receives federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for public housing capital improvements and operating expenses, acting as a direct grant recipient rather than a contractor. The authority is a child entity of the City of Belleville and operates exclusively within the HUD Public and Indian Housing Office funding stream.

Housing Authority Of Belleville's entire award footprint consists of formula grants under two recurring HUD programs. The authority receives ongoing Public Housing Operating Fund grants (CFDA in the $5 billion annual program serving approximately 6,000 housing authorities nationwide) to fund day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service on public housing units. The authority also receives Public Housing Capital Fund grants to support public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and eligible capital activities as described in 24 CFR 905.200. Representative awards include a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2025, with ultimate completion December 31, 2031; a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030; and a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded May 13, 2025, completing May 12, 2029. All grants are formula-based, meaning Housing Authority Of Belleville qualifies automatically as a participating public housing agency rather than competing for discretionary funding.

Activity has remained stable across the recent five-year period, with two awards per year in 2022 through 2026. Combined dollars obligated across all thirty-six awards total $1.3 million, reflecting the modest scale of the authority's housing portfolio relative to larger metropolitan PHAs. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, triggering the next cycle of formula-grant renewals. HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of awards, with no subcontract engagement or co-award arrangements evident in the source data. The authority's grant work is purely administrative — it receives federal funds to administer public housing operations and capital programs for its local resident base rather than delivering contracted services to federal agencies.
