Housing Authority Of The City Of Ellaville

Housing Authority Of The City Of Ellaville, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority headquartered in Columbus, Georgia, is a prime recipient of federal grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, operating exclusively within HUD's public housing programs and carrying no federal contract work.

Ellaville Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of formula grants under two core HUD programs. The authority is a recipient of Public Housing Capital Fund grants (CFDA 14.872), which support public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs; the most recent award, effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, carries a $133,013 allocation. Concurrently, the authority holds Public Housing Operating Fund grants (CFDA not explicitly numbered in source but part of the Public and Indian Housing program family), which fund day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, resident services, energy costs, and administrative activities for public housing units. The Operating Fund award running January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2031, represents ongoing operational subsidy. Capital Fund awards have been issued serially since at least May 2022, with successive four-year terms completing in May 2026, May 2028, May 2029, and March 2030. Operating Fund awards similarly recur on annual cycles, with current awards completing December 31, 2031, and December 31, 2032.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100 percent of the authority's 44 federal awards. The authority does not compete for or hold federal contracts, IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs; it operates exclusively as a formula-grant recipient under the Public Housing Act. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $4.8 million. Activity has been steady but sparse — two awards in 2025 and two in 2026 to date — reflecting the formulaic, predictable grant-renewal cycle of public housing programs rather than competitive procurement. Two awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.

This entity functions as a municipal housing authority administering federal public housing inventory and operations for low-income residents in the Ellaville area, not as a vendor competing for federal contracting opportunities or eligible to subcontract on federal projects.
