Mississippi Regional Housing Authority #5

Mississippi Regional Housing Authority #5, a U.S. local government entity headquartered in Newton, Mississippi, is a recipient of federal housing formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, serving exclusively as a prime recipient with no subcontractor or sub-recipient activity across its federal award footprint.

The authority operates two primary grant programs under HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. The Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850) provides recurring operating subsidies to support day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation for public housing units serving lower-income families, elderly individuals, and persons with disabilities. The Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) supplies capital grants for modernization, development, management improvements, physical infrastructure improvements, energy efficiency upgrades, and emergency repairs within the authority's service area. Recent awards include a $1,892,761 capital grant (April 2026 through March 2030), three operating fund grants in January 2026 ($332,787, $284,933, and $183,426 respectively, each running through December 2032), and a prior capital grant awarded May 2025 with ultimate completion in May 2029. All grants are formula-allocated by HUD based on inventory characteristics, building age, construction costs, unit counts, and occupancy metrics across the national network of approximately 2,770 Public Housing Agencies.

Customer concentration is absolute: 100% of 73 recent awards derive from the Department of Housing and Urban Development Public and Indian Housing Office, with a single outlier award from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Housing Federal Housing Commissioner. Combined obligated dollars across the entire footprint total $47.5 million. Activity has remained consistent at four awards per year from 2022 through 2026. Four awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, representing the authority's standard recompete cycle as multi-year formula grants reach their scheduled expiration. Mississippi Regional Housing Authority #5 does not compete on federal contracts, does not hold federal contract vehicles, and operates entirely within HUD's formula-grant housing programs as a public housing agency administering affordable housing stock for vulnerable populations in Newton, Mississippi.
