Lynchburg Redevelopment & Housing Authority

Lynchburg Redevelopment & Housing Authority, a U.S. local government housing authority headquartered in Lynchburg, Virginia, receives federal grant funding as a recipient from the Department of Housing and Urban Development to operate and develop public housing and administer homelessness-prevention programs in the Lynchburg area. The Authority is a prime grant recipient only—it does not compete for federal contracts and has no federal procurement footprint.

The Authority's federal activity consists entirely of HUD grants awarded under two programs. The Public and Indian Housing Office provides the vast majority of funding through three recurring formula grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which supports day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses for public housing dwellings; the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which finances capital improvements, modernization, development, and infrastructure work on the Authority's housing portfolio; and an emergency Safety and Security grant for capital needs related to crime and drug-related activity. Recent Operating Fund awards include $225,550 (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), $200,227 (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), and $227,882 (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), all obligated on January 1, 2026. A $1,299,191 Capital Fund award obligated April 1, 2026 runs through March 31, 2030. The Authority's second federal grant source is the HUD Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development, which funds homelessness-prevention and housing work under the Continuum of Care Program (CFDA 14.267). A recent CoC project grant for $320,183, obligated March 1, 2026, supports permanent housing, transitional housing, rapid rehousing, supportive services, Homeless Management Information Systems operations, and homelessness-prevention activities through February 28, 2027. The Authority also received a JOBS-PLUS Pilot Initiative grant from the Public and Indian Housing Office for the period June 1, 2024 through May 31, 2027.

Activity is flat across the past five years—five awards obligated in each of 2022, 2023, 2025, and 2026, with seven in 2024. The Authority has received ninety-four total federal awards since 2006, obligating $43.7 million across the portfolio. Ten awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months. The Authority serves only two federal customer agencies, with the Public and Indian Housing Office accounting for eighty-two awards and the Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development for twelve awards. As a local government entity receiving federal formula and project grants for statutory housing and homelessness programs, the Authority does not operate as a vendor to federal contractors and does not subcontract federal work to commercial suppliers.
