Housing Authority Of City Of Morrilton

Housing Authority of City of Morrilton, doing business as Morrilton Housing Authority, is a U.S. government entity—a local public housing authority based in Morrilton, Arkansas—that receives federal grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to fund public housing operations and capital improvements serving low-income residents in the jurisdiction.

The Housing Authority operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient, not as a federal contractor. All 42 awards in its recent footprint are formula grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no federal contracts, IDVs, or contract vehicles. The authority does not compete on federal procurement vehicles and does not serve as a subcontractor; it is a prime recipient of direct federal grant funding. Over the past five years (2022–2026), the authority has received an average of two awards annually, with $16.8 million combined across all obligated awards and 100% of customer concentration in HUD.

The authority's grant portfolio centers on two core HUD programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides annual operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses for public housing dwellings, including property management, routine preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. The Operating Fund award effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032 carries $211,291 in formula funding. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides formula grants for capital activities including public housing development, modernization, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, and financing activities specified in the authority's approved 5-Year Action Plan or approved for emergency work. The Capital Fund award effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030 carries $607,044 in formula funding. Earlier Capital Fund grants awarded May 2025, May 2024, February 2023, and May 2022 carry completion dates extending through May 2029. Operating Fund awards from January 2025 and January 2024 carry completion dates extending through December 2031 and December 2030 respectively.

Four awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore face formula-grant reallocation or renewal in that window. The authority maintains no federal contract prime awardees and carries no federal contractors on its rolls, making it a direct-grant recipient only rather than a procurement entity or customer for federal contractors seeking subcontracting opportunities.
