Lafayette Housing Authority

Lafayette Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in LaFayette, Georgia, receives formula grant awards from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, capital improvements, and resident services. The Authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) with no federal contracting activity and no subcontracting relationships; all 91 federal awards in the source data flow from HUD to the Authority directly.

The Authority's federal footprint concentrates entirely within two HUD grant programs. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) funds day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service for the Authority's public housing stock serving low-income families, elderly residents, and individuals with disabilities. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) provides capital grants for modernization, infrastructure improvements, construction and rehabilitation of housing units, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and management improvements, all pursuant to the Authority's approved 5-year action plan and 24 CFR Part 905. Recent awards include a $932,462 capital fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and operating fund grants of $134,081, $229,479, and multiple additional allocations running through December 31, 2032, reflecting the formula-based allocation methodology under which HUD distributes roughly $5 billion annually across approximately 6,000 public housing agencies nationwide.

Activity holds steady at approximately five awards per year across the past five years, with six awards facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. Combined obligated dollars across the entire 91-award portfolio total $27.4 million, spanning from a first award date in July 2006 to the most recent allocation in April 2026. The Authority receives no competitive procurements, IDIQs, BPAs, or other vehicles requiring federal procurement competition — all funding arrives through HUD's formula-allocation methodology for public housing agencies.
