Lennox Housing & Redevelopment Commission

Lennox Housing & Redevelopment Commission, doing business as Lennox Housing Authority, is a U.S. local government entity — a public housing authority headquartered in Lennox, South Dakota — that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and modernize public housing inventory. The vendor operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of awards) and has no federal contract prime or subcontract work in the source data.

Lennox Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD housing grants under two core programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (OPFUND) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFP). Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational expenses, maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service for public housing units. Capital Fund grants fund public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and other eligible activities as described in 24 CFR Part 905, including construction and acquisition of additional public housing units. Representative awards include a Public Housing Operating Fund formula grant effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032; a Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant awarded May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion May 12, 2029; and a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded May 6, 2024, running through May 5, 2028. The combined dollars obligated across all 34 awards since 2006 total $1.5 million.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of awards. Activity has remained flat at two awards per year across the past five years (2022 through 2026), with two awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore subject to recompete. The vendor's funding depends on HUD's annual appropriations to the Public Housing Operating Fund (a $5 billion program nationwide serving approximately 6,000 housing authorities) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (serving roughly 2,770 public housing agencies across all 50 states and territories). Lennox Housing Authority does not compete for contract work or subcontract opportunities; its federal relationship is limited to receipt of formula grant funding to administer and maintain its public housing portfolio.
