Housing Authority Of The Town Of Harrison

Housing Authority Of The Town Of Harrison is a U.S. local government housing authority based in Harrison, New Jersey, operating as a recipient of federal formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no federal contracting activity as a prime or sub.

The Housing Authority receives recurrent HUD formula grants under two primary 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 and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy cost management, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation for public housing dwellings serving lower-income families, elderly residents, and persons with disabilities. Most recently, the Housing Authority received a $237,745 Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032. Capital Fund grants support modernization, development, and management activities including infrastructure rehabilitation, construction and acquisition of additional public housing units, energy efficiency upgrades, and emergency repairs. The Housing Authority's most recent Capital Fund award, dated April 1, 2026, carried $1,071,293 in funding with a completion date of March 31, 2030. Both grant programs are formula-based allocations tied to the Housing Authority's public housing inventory characteristics and approved 5-year action plans.

The Housing Authority's federal footprint is entirely concentrated with HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office across 41 total federal awards (100% of awards) spanning from 2006 to the present, with an average of two awards annually over the past five years and combined dollars obligated of approximately $30 million. Two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months. The Housing Authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient with no subcontract or prime contracting relationships; all federal funding flows directly from HUD for operational subsidies and capital improvements to its public housing portfolio in Harrison.
