Jasper Housing Authority

Jasper Housing Authority, doing business as Myrtis Village, is a U.S. local government housing authority based in Jasper, Texas, that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations and capital improvements. The organization operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient — all 41 awards in its recent footprint are prime grants with no subcontracting activity — and serves a single customer agency, HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, which funds 100% of its federal awards.

Jasper Housing Authority's federal grant portfolio centers on two recurring HUD programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.874), which provides operating subsidies for day-to-day maintenance, management, routine preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, and resident supportive services; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which funds capital and management activities including public housing modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs. Recent grants include a $172,821 Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded on April 1, 2026, with completion by March 31, 2030; a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2026, with completion by December 31, 2032; a Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded May 13, 2025, with completion by May 12, 2029; and a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2025, with completion by December 31, 2031. All expenditures must comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, and the authority must maintain accurate inventory data and budgetary records subject to HUD review and independent audits.

Activity has remained flat at approximately two awards per year across the last five years, with combined dollars obligated at $4 million across the entire 41-award footprint. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and will face renewal or recompete in that window. The organization operates Myrtis Village public housing units in Jasper, Texas, serving low-income residents through HUD's formula-grant allocation system, which distributes annual funding to approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies nationwide managing nearly one million public housing units.
