Housing Authority Of City

Housing Authority Of City, doing business as Overton Housing Authority, is a not-for-profit public housing authority based in Overton, Texas, that operates as a federal grant recipient under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization does not function as a federal contractor or subcontractor; it receives formula grants exclusively to fund public housing operations and capital improvements for low-income residents in its service area.

Overton Housing Authority's entire federal footprint (100% of recent awards) consists of formula grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, totaling $4.5 million in combined obligations across forty-one awards since 2006. The organization receives recurring allocations under two primary federal programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). Operating fund grants support day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service on mixed-finance developments. Capital fund grants finance public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, development activities, and management improvements per 24 CFR 905.200. Recent capital grants include a $165,673 award effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, and an earlier capital fund grant awarded May 6, 2024, with ultimate completion May 5, 2028. Operating fund grants run in parallel, with a current cycle from January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2031, and predecessor awards cycling annually through December 31. All grant awards are formula-based allocations determined by the housing authority's public housing inventory characteristics, and funds must be obligated by specified deadlines (typically two years into the award period) with expenditure completion by the ultimate completion date.

Activity has remained steady at two awards per year over the past five years. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Overton Housing Authority operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient with no federal contract or subcontract work; the organization is neither a prime nor sub on any federal procurement vehicles. For business development professionals at federal contractors, Overton Housing Authority does not represent a teaming, partnership, or competitive intelligence opportunity in the federal contracting space — it is a grant-funded public housing agency without procurement authority or vendor relationships.
