Lafayette Housing Authority

Lafayette Housing Authority, a tax-exempt non-profit public housing agency based in Lafayette, Tennessee, is a recipient of federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for public housing capital improvements, modernization, and operational expenses. The agency operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of awards) with no federal contracting footprint or sub-award relationships.

Lafayette Housing Authority receives recurring annual allocations under two HUD Public and Indian Housing Office formula grant programs. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) supports physical structure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, modernization activities, development projects, and demolition and reconstruction across the agency's public housing inventory, with a recent $358,746 grant awarded April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides operating subsidies for day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation, with a recent $100,574 award dated January 1, 2026, extending through December 31, 2032. The Operating Fund is a $5 billion program nationwide serving approximately 6,000 housing authorities and 1.59 million public housing residents; the Capital Fund serves nearly one million public housing units across approximately 2,770 public housing agencies in all fifty states and territories.

Lafayette Housing Authority's federal award profile is narrowly concentrated: all forty awards in the source data derive from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no other customer agencies. The agency has received formula grants on a regular cadence — two awards per calendar year from 2022 through 2026 — generating $8.9 million in combined obligations across the full award history. Two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months. The agency's grants are direct allocations tied to its status as a public housing agency established under the U.S. Housing Act of 1937 and therefore face no competitive recompete cycle; HUD allocates capital and operating funds to eligible housing authorities through formula-driven processes rather than competitive procurement.
