Housing Authority Of The City Of Huntington, Texas

Housing Authority Of The City Of Huntington, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Huntington, Texas, is a recipient of federal grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, operating exclusively as a grant recipient rather than a federal contractor or subcontractor.

The Housing Authority's federal funding stream consists entirely of formula grants under two HUD public housing programs. The first is the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which supports capital and management activities including physical improvements to housing structures, modernization, energy efficiency upgrades, security initiatives, and development-related work that expands or reconfigures public housing inventory. The second is the Public Housing Operating Fund, which provides operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative costs. Recent awards include a $168,805 Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant effective April 1, 2026 with completion by March 31, 2030; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2026 with completion by December 31, 2032; and a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025 with completion by May 12, 2029. These are formula-based allocations calculated using the Housing Authority's public housing inventory characteristics—unit counts, building age, and construction costs—rather than competitive selections. The HUD Public and Indian Housing Office awards all 41 grants in the Housing Authority's federal footprint, representing 100% customer concentration and $4.7 million in combined obligations across all awards.

Activity has remained flat at two awards per year from 2022 through 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The Housing Authority operates within the framework of approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide serving nearly one million units under the Public Housing Capital Fund and approximately 6,000 housing authorities serving roughly 902,436 households under the Public Housing Operating Fund.
