Paducah Housing Authority

Paducah Housing Authority is a U.S. local government housing authority headquartered in Paducah, Texas, that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, capital improvements, and modernization. The authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient, not as a federal contractor or subcontractor, with 100% of its recent federal funding flowing through HUD formula-grant mechanisms.

Paducah Housing Authority's award footprint consists entirely of HUD Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) grants. The Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative costs. Capital Fund grants fund public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and infrastructure work within the authority's HUD-approved 5-Year Action Plan or for emergency repairs. Recent representative awards include a Public Housing Operating Fund grant of $179,402 (award date January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2032), a Public Housing Capital Fund award of $177,473 (award date April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030), and an earlier Capital Fund award dated May 6, 2024, with completion in May 2028. All grants are formula-based allocations calculated from inventory characteristics (unit counts, building age, construction costs) without competitive selection; the authority receives no discretionary or competitive awards.

The authority's customer concentration is complete: all 39 grants in the source come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. Activity has been consistent at two awards annually from 2022 through 2025, with three awards in 2026. Combined obligated dollars across the footprint total $5.5 million. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing the authority's near-term grant-expiration cycle. The authority administers grants directly with no sub-recipients, and it does not hold federal contract vehicles, IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs. Paducah Housing Authority is not a contractor or subcontractor to federal agencies and therefore does not participate in federal supply chains or compete for federal contracts; its federal engagement is limited to direct HUD formula-grant administration.
