Fitzgerald Housing Authority Of City

Housing Authority of the City of Fitzgerald, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Fitzgerald, Georgia, is a federal grant recipient that receives formula grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing units serving low-income residents.

The Housing Authority acts exclusively as a prime recipient (100% of awards) under two primary HUD grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The Operating Fund provides subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. The Capital Fund supports modernization, development, construction, rehabilitation, energy efficiency upgrades, and physical improvements to public housing infrastructure, with eligible activities drawn from the Housing Authority's approved five-year action plan or emergency work approved by HUD. The Housing Authority directly implements all federally-funded programs without involvement of external contractors or subrecipients.

All 35 awards in the Housing Authority's recent footprint derive from a single customer agency—HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office—representing 100% of award concentration. Recent grant activity includes a $654,652 Capital Fund formula grant (effective April 1, 2026, completing March 31, 2030), a $388,323 Operating Fund formula grant (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), a prior-year $654,652 Capital Fund award (May 13, 2025 through May 12, 2029), and continuing Operating Fund support. Activity across the past five years has remained flat at two awards per year, with combined dollars obligated across all awards totaling $20.1 million. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting recompete opportunity for the Housing Authority's renewal applications.
