Housing Authority Of City Of Bridgeton

Housing Authority Of City Of Bridgeton, doing business as Bridgeton Housing Authority, receives federal grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and modernize its public housing portfolio as a prime grant recipient with no subcontractor or sub-recipient pass-through. The authority is a U.S. local government entity structured as a municipal housing authority, headquartered in Bridgeton, New Jersey, and holds no federal contracts or contract vehicles.

The authority's federal footprint consists entirely of formula grants under two HUD programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) funds day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses—management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative implementation—for the authority's approximately 1,000 public housing units serving low-income residents, elderly individuals, and families with children in Bridgeton. Recent operating fund awards include $250,310 obligated August 3, 2026 (performance through December 31, 2030), $545,704 obligated January 1, 2026 (performance through December 31, 2032), $324,480 obligated January 1, 2026 (performance through December 31, 2032), and $366,035 obligated January 1, 2026 (performance through December 31, 2032). The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) funds capital improvements, modernization, development, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades constrained to eligible activities in an approved 5-year action plan or HUD-approved emergency work. The authority received $1,329,830 under the Capital Fund on April 1, 2026 (performance through March 31, 2030). All awards carry performance in Bridgeton, NJ 08302.

The authority has received 83 total federal grants over its recorded history, with $49.8 million combined dollars obligated. The Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of awards. Activity has remained relatively flat in recent years—six awards in 2022 declining to four awards each in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and five awards in 2026. Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore face recompete or renewal determination in that window. The authority does not compete for federal contracts, sits on no government-wide acquisition vehicles, and operates solely within HUD's housing authority grant program structure.
