Housing Authority Of The City Of Lithonia Georgia

Housing Authority Of The City Of Lithonia Georgia is a U.S. local government entity and municipal housing authority that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing capital improvements, modernization, development, and operational expenses serving low-income residents in Lithonia, Georgia.

The Housing Authority operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient, with no prime federal contracts, IDVs, or subcontracting roles in its award footprint. Its entire federal funding stream — 41 awards totaling $8.6 million obligated across the past two decades — flows from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office under two primary grant programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850). Both are formula-based allocations, meaning the Housing Authority qualifies for annual or multi-year funding through a statutory allocation mechanism rather than competitive procurement. Capital Fund grants support public housing modernization, facility improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing costs associated with public housing development, subject to an approved 5-Year Action Plan and 24 CFR Part 905 compliance. Operating Fund grants cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation.

Recent awards include a $228,737 Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and a $126,692 Public Housing Operating Fund formula grant awarded January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032. Earlier awards under the same programs span back to at least 2006, with two awards issued annually on average between 2022 and 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and will require recompete or renewal. The Housing Authority's customer concentration is absolute — 100% of its award count and dollars derive from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, reflecting the singular nature of housing authority federal funding streams. As a government entity rather than a commercial contractor, the Housing Authority does not compete for federal work, hold set-asides, or engage in subcontracting relationships; it administers HUD capital and operating funds in accordance with Section 9 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937.
