The Housing Authority Of The City Of Fort Morgan, a U.S. government entity and public housing authority based in Fort Morgan, Colorado, is a federal grant recipient operating under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office.

Fort Morgan Housing Authority's entire federal footprint — 40 awards across nearly two decades — channels through HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, the sole funding agency. The authority receives recurring formula grants under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (PH OpFund). The Capital Fund awards support modernization, rehabilitation, infrastructure upgrades, energy efficiency improvements, and development or acquisition of additional public housing units, all specified in the authority's HUD-approved five-year action plans or emergency work approvals. Operating Fund awards cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service for the authority's public housing portfolio.

Recent grant activity shows consistent annual volume: two awards in each of the past five years (2022 through 2026). The most recent awards include a $285,764 Capital Fund formula grant effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, and earlier Capital Fund allocations dated May 13, 2025 (completion May 12, 2029) and May 6, 2024 (completion May 5, 2028). The authority also holds recurring Public Housing Operating Fund grants, including one active from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032, and an earlier grant from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2031.
