Metter Housing Authority

Metter Housing Authority is a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Metter, Georgia, that receives federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing operations, capital improvements, and resident services — it operates exclusively as a grant recipient rather than a federal contractor or subcontractor.

Metter Housing Authority's entire federal footprint consists of formula grants under two HUD programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872). The authority's most recent awards include a $240,698 operating subsidy effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, and a $373,682 capital grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030. These grants fund day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses — property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service — alongside capital modernization, development, infrastructure upgrades, energy efficiency improvements, and emergency repairs for public housing units serving lower-income residents in Metter. The authority's capital awards are formulaic allocations based on established national criteria reflecting inventory characteristics including unit counts, building age, and construction costs; operating awards follow submission of HUD-prescribed calculation forms with performance periods typically spanning five to seven years. All expenditures must comply with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, with the authority maintaining accurate inventory data and budgetary records subject to HUD and independent auditor review.

Activity is consistent: two awards per year across the 2022–2026 period, with 41 total awards since 2006 and combined dollars obligated of $12.4 million across the full source-data span. The authority's customer base is singular — 100% of awards are HUD Public and Indian Housing Office grants — and two awards reach completion within the next twenty-four months, creating recompete windows for renewal. Metter Housing Authority has no federal contract prime awards, no contract IDVs, and no subcontractor relationships in federal programs.
