Lake Andes Housing Authority

Lake Andes Housing Authority, a municipal housing authority in Lake Andes, South Dakota, receives federal grants as a prime recipient from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under the Public Housing Capital Fund and Public Housing Operating Fund programs. The Authority operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient with no federal contracting activity; all 41 awards in recent years are formula grants from HUD.

The Authority's federal portfolio consists entirely of two recurring HUD grant programs. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) supports modernization, development, and management improvements to the Authority's public housing inventory; recent awards include a formula grant issued May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion date May 12, 2029, and an earlier grant dated May 6, 2024, completing May 5, 2028. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.877) provides operating subsidies for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, routine preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, and administrative program implementation; recent awards span January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032, and January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2031. Both programs are formula-based allocations distributed to approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide serving roughly 1 million public housing units.

Customer concentration is absolute: HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of the Authority's 41 awards across the available history. The Authority receives two awards per year in the recent cycle (2022 through 2026), with combined dollars obligated of $2.9 million across all historical awards. Four awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing the Authority's recompete exposure for capital and operating fund renewals. The Authority does not appear on federal contracts, IDIQs, GWACs, or schedule vehicles; it operates as a recipient of direct formula grant allocations rather than as a contractor or sub-recipient under prime contracts.
