Housing Authority Of The City Of North Little Rock Arkansas

Housing Authority Of The City Of North Little Rock Arkansas is a local government housing authority based in North Little Rock, Arkansas that receives federal grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office as a prime recipient, with no federal contract prime or sub work in its footprint.

The Housing Authority operates exclusively within the federal grant space, receiving formula grants and project grants under three primary HUD programs. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides capital improvement funding for public housing modernization, development, and management improvements; the Housing Authority received a $551,939 formula grant award effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030 under this program, allocated through HUD's formula methodology based on unit counts, building age, and construction costs. The Public Housing Operating Fund provides operating subsidies for day-to-day expenses including routine maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, and administrative costs; the Housing Authority holds awards under this program with completion dates extending through December 31, 2032. The Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program (awarded as a project grant) funds FSS coordinator positions responsible for enrolling and serving participating families in training and employment pathways; the Housing Authority received an FSS award in January 2024 covering coordinator salaries and fringe benefits.

Customer concentration is singular. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 134 of 135 recent awards (99% of the portfolio) and all $83.5 million in combined dollars obligated. The Housing Authority's federal footprint spans from 2006 to present, with annual award volume ranging from two to five grants per year over the most recent five-year period. Three awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing the Housing Authority's near-term recompete exposure. The Housing Authority's sub-award activity is minimal: one grant sub-award dating to February 2024 for administration of tenant-based rental assistance indicates engagement as a sub-recipient on other PHAs' or property owners' HUD grants, though the primary role remains as a formula and project grant recipient managing its own public housing portfolio.
