Mamou Housing Authority

Mamou Housing Authority, a U.S. government entity based in Mamou, Louisiana, is a recipient of federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office under two statutory programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The authority does not hold federal contracts as a prime or subcontractor and does not participate in federal contract vehicles. Mamou Housing Authority functions exclusively as a direct grant recipient, operating as a public housing agency serving low-income residents in its Louisiana service area.

Mamou Housing Authority's federal funding supports operational and capital activities across a fragmented but consistent grant portfolio. The authority receives formula-based allocations rather than competitive awards, reflecting its statutory standing as one of approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide managing nearly one million public housing units. Recent grants include a $370,565 Public Housing Capital Fund award (April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030) supporting capital and management activities for development, modernization, renovation, and infrastructure improvements to the authority's public housing inventory; a $201,834 Public Housing Operating Fund award (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032) covering day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy management, resident supportive services, insurance, and administrative program implementation; and prior-year allocations awarded in May 2025, January 2025, May 2024, January 2024, February 2023, January 2023, May 2022, and January 2022.

All 41 awards in the source data flow from the HUD Public and Indian Housing Office, with combined dollars obligated of $11.9 million over the entire award history. Activity runs at a steady baseline of approximately two awards per year across both operating and capital grant streams. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, representing routine recompete cycles aligned with the statutory grant renewal schedules under sections 9 and 9(d) of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937. Mamou Housing Authority does not operate as a federal contractor and therefore presents no competitive signal for procurement-focused business development; the organization's federal footprint is confined to direct HUD grant administration under the Public Housing Operating Fund and Capital Fund programs serving its local public housing portfolio.
