The Housing Authority Of The City Of Dayton

The Housing Authority of the City of Dayton is a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Dayton, 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 and capital improvements. All recent grant activity is prime recipient work; the authority does not perform work as a subrecipient or on competitively awarded contracts.

The Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants under two programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides capital assistance for modernization, development, management improvements, construction and rehabilitation of public housing units, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs as specified in approved five-year action plans. Recent named awards include a $297,075 Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, with completion targeted for March 31, 2030; a $157,720 Public Housing Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032; and earlier capital and operating awards dating back to 2022. Both programs operate on non-competitive, formula-based allocation methodologies that distribute funds to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide based on inventory characteristics including unit counts, building age, and construction costs.

The Housing Authority's customer concentration is absolute: all 23 awards in the source data are from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, representing a combined obligation of $5.4 million. Activity has remained flat at two awards per year over the past five years, with two awards (the most recent ones) set to complete within the next twenty-four months. The authority's role is purely that of grant recipient managing public housing portfolios in Dayton, Texas; it does not bid federal contracts, sit on government-wide vehicles, or subcontract to other vendors.
