Housing Authority Of The Town Of Winchester

Housing Authority Of The Town Of Winchester Housing Authority Winchester, Inc. Division, doing business as Chestnut Grove Apts, is a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority that receives formula grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to operate and maintain approximately 50 public housing units at its Chestnut Grove Apartments complex in Winsted, Connecticut. The vendor operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient (100% of awards) under two HUD programs and has no contracting footprint.

The Housing Authority's federal funding flows through two primary HUD grant programs administered by the Public and Indian Housing Office. Under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), the authority receives annual operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. Most recent operating fund awards include a $115,423 grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032. Under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), the authority receives capital improvement grants to fund modernization, infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency enhancements, emergency repairs, and management improvements according to its approved 5-Year Action Plan. Representative capital fund awards include a $271,054 grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030 and a prior-year award issued May 6, 2024 with completion date May 5, 2028.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for all 58 awards in the source data, representing $7.6 million in combined obligated dollars across the vendor's federal footprint. Activity has remained flat at approximately three awards per year over the past five years. Seven awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, reflecting the cyclical annual renewal structure of HUD's formula grant programs for public housing authorities. The Housing Authority's role is limited to deploying federal capital and operating funds for the maintenance and improvement of public housing stock serving low-income residents in the Winchester community; the vendor does not sell goods or services to federal agencies and holds no positions on federal contract vehicles, IDIQs, or GWACs.
