Monticello Housing Authority, a public housing authority and local government entity based in Monticello, New York, receives federal grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and modernize public housing serving low-income residents. The Authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient and does not hold federal contracts or function as a subcontractor; all 54 awards in its recent footprint come from HUD's formula grant programs.

Monticello Housing Authority is a child entity of the Village of Monticello, a local government municipality. The Authority's grant portfolio consists entirely of formula-based awards from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office — no competitive grants or contracts. The two primary grant vehicles are the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which supports day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative implementation; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which finances public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and security enhancements. A 2022 award under the Family Self-Sufficiency Program (a project grant) rounds out the portfolio.

Recent grants include a $358,225 Public Housing Capital Fund formula grant effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030; a $219,482 Public Housing Operating Fund formula grant effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032; and a Capital Fund award effective May 13, 2025, through May 12, 2029. The Authority's $12.7 million combined dollars obligated across all awards reflects the modest scale of Monticello's public housing inventory relative to the national program, which serves approximately 6,000 housing authorities and 1.5 million residents across the country. Activity has remained flat at two awards annually in 2024, 2025, and 2026, with only two awards facing ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months and therefore subject to recompete or grant renewal.
