Martinsburg Housing Authority

Martinsburg Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority headquartered in Martinsburg, West Virginia, is a federal grant recipient operating under HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office formula grant programs — not a federal contractor. The authority receives annual allocations under two primary grant vehicles, the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), to fund operations, maintenance, modernization, and infrastructure improvements at its public housing portfolio serving low-income families, elderly residents, and persons with disabilities in the Martinsburg community.

Martinsburg Housing Authority's federal footprint is entirely composed of formula grant awards from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no federal contracts, IDVs, or contract prime awardees on record. The authority is a 100% prime recipient across all forty-four awards in its tracked federal portfolio. Recent grants include a $916,613 Public Housing Capital Fund award obligated April 1, 2026 (ultimate completion March 31, 2030) for capital and management activities including public housing modernization, development, and infrastructure upgrades; a $1,024,891 Public Housing Operating Fund award obligated January 1, 2026 (ultimate completion December 31, 2032) for day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation; and prior-year allocations under both programs spanning 2022 through 2025. These are formula grants — no application is required, and HUD calculates allocations annually based on public housing inventory characteristics that PHAs maintain in the Information Management System/Public Housing Information Center.

The authority concentrates exclusively with a single customer agency — the Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for one hundred percent of its awards. Activity remains steady at two awards per year across 2022–2026, with a combined obligation of approximately $31 million across all forty-four awards since first entering the federal system in 2006. Four awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, but these represent continuation and renewal of recurring formula allocations rather than competitive recompetes. Work is performed in Martinsburg, West Virginia, with performance periods extending through 2032 on the operating fund side and through 2030 on the capital fund side.
