Housing Auth Of Hickman

Housing Auth Of Hickman, a U.S. government entity and local housing authority based in Hickman, Kentucky, receives federal grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing units serving low-income residents. The authority operates exclusively as a direct recipient of HUD formula grants; it does not contract as a prime or subcontractor for federal services.

The Housing Authority's entire federal award footprint (41 awards, $10.7 million combined obligated dollars) derives from two recurring HUD grant programs under the Public and Indian Housing Office. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides grants for capital improvements, modernization, rehabilitation, development, and infrastructure upgrades to the housing inventory. Recent capital fund awards include a $399,791 grant obligated April 1, 2026 (completion March 31, 2030) for capital and management activities, a prior award obligated May 6, 2024 (completion May 5, 2028), and one obligated May 12, 2022 (completion May 11, 2026). The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides operating subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, anti-crime activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and administrative implementation. Recent operating fund awards include a $104,714 grant obligated January 1, 2026 (completion December 31, 2032), one obligated January 1, 2025 (completion December 31, 2031), and one obligated January 1, 2024 (completion December 31, 2030).

Activity is steady and recurring: two awards per year over the past five years reflect the predictable cadence of HUD's formula grant allocation cycles. Two awards have ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and will face renewal in that window. The authority's customer concentration is absolute — 100% of awards flow from a single federal agency, HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office — a characteristic of housing authorities whose federal funding model is grant-based rather than contract-based and restricted to HUD as the sole funding source.
