Housing Authority Of City Of Bristow

Housing Authority Of The City Of Bristow, doing business as Bristow Housing Authority, is a U.S. local government entity (city housing authority) headquartered in Bristow, Oklahoma, that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to operate and maintain public housing serving low-income residents in Bristow. The authority operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient, with no federal contracts as a prime contractor, no subcontracting role, and no participation in IDIQs, GWACs, or other transactional federal vehicles.

The organization's entire federal footprint consists of formula grants under two HUD Public and Indian Housing Office programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative implementation costs. Capital Fund grants support infrastructure modernization, development, management improvements, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades to the authority's public housing inventory. Both programs distribute funds through formula-based allocations reflecting the authority's unit inventory characteristics, building age, and construction costs. The authority received a $154,045 Operating Fund award effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, and a $396,112 Capital Fund award effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. Earlier Capital Fund and Operating Fund awards dating to at least 2022 are in execution, with multiple overlapping grant periods running through 2030 and 2032.

Activity is stable at two awards per year across 2022 through 2026, with a combined obligation of $12.4 million across forty grants to date. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office is the sole customer agency (100% of awards). Within the next twenty-four months, two awards reach ultimate completion date and will cycle for recompete or renewal. Bristow Housing Authority operates within the regulatory framework of 24 CFR Part 905 and 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, maintaining detailed budgets and cost records subject to HUD review and independent audit. The authority serves one of approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide that collectively manage nearly one million public housing units across all fifty states and territories under these same federal programs.
