Lenoir Housing Authority

Lenoir Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Lenoir, North Carolina, receives formula grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to support public housing operations and capital improvements serving low-income residents in its jurisdiction. The authority operates as a grant recipient, not as a federal contractor, and holds no federal contracts or contract vehicles.

Lenoir Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants under two primary programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). Operating Fund grants provide day-to-day subsidies for property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative expenses. Capital Fund grants support modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and related management activities aligned with the authority's approved 5-Year Action Plan or HUD-approved emergency and disaster work. A third funding stream is the Jobs-Plus Pilot Initiative, a project grant supporting workforce development and economic self-sufficiency for residents. Recent named awards include a $552,699 Capital Fund formula grant (effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030), a $315,329 Operating Fund formula grant (effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), and a prior-year Capital Fund award (May 6, 2024 through May 5, 2028). The Jobs-Plus award ran from June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2026.

Customer concentration is absolute: all 43 awards across the source data come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, representing $18.2 million in combined obligated dollars. The authority receives approximately two awards per year in recent years (two in 2025 and 2026, two in 2024, three in 2023, two in 2022). Four awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months and thus face recompete or renewal processing in that window. The authority operates as a 100% prime recipient and carries no subcontract exposure. Lenoir Housing Authority's federal footprint is narrowly specialized — it functions as a local housing provider managing federal assistance for its own public housing portfolio rather than as a vendor offering services to other federal agencies.
