Housing Authority Of Eminence

Housing Authority Of Eminence is a tax-exempt nonprofit public housing authority that receives federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing capital improvements, modernization, and operating expenses in Eminence, Kentucky. The organization operates exclusively as a direct grant recipient (100% of awards) with no federal contract prime or sub activity.

Housing Authority Of Eminence draws all of its federal funding from a single customer — the Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office — across two recurrent formula grant programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. The Capital Fund supports public housing modernization, renovation, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, routine maintenance, and development activities that add to or reconfigure the Housing Authority's public housing unit inventory. Eligible activities are limited to those specified in the Housing Authority's approved 5-Year Action Plan or HUD-approved emergency work and natural disaster repairs under 24 CFR 905.200. The Operating Fund provides day-to-day operational subsidies covering management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Recent grant awards include a $278,702 Capital Fund allocation effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant running January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032; a $278,702 Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025, through May 12, 2029; and a Public Housing Operating Fund grant dated January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2031.

The Housing Authority has received 40 awards totaling $7 million obligated since 2006, with consistent annual allocations of two awards per year across the last five years. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The organization operates no subcontracting relationships and serves no role as a prime contractor or sub contractor on federal contracts; its federal relationship is limited to direct grant receipt and administration of public housing programs serving low-income residents in its local jurisdiction.
