Moundridge Housing Authority

Moundridge Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Moundridge, Kansas, receives federal grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to support capital improvements, operating expenses, and management activities for public housing in Moundridge.

The organization operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient — not as a prime or subcontractor — and receives 100% of its federal funding from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office. All forty awards in the source are formula-grant allocations under two core HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. These are non-competitive, formula-based allocations distributed to approximately 2,770 and 6,000 housing authorities respectively across all fifty states and territories. Under the Capital Fund program, Moundridge receives grants to fund housing modernization, development and acquisition of additional public housing units, infrastructure repairs and maintenance, energy efficiency upgrades, and related financing costs. Under the Operating Fund program, Moundridge receives annual operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, management and administration, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service. All funded activities must comply with HUD's 5-year action plans or receive HUD authorization for emergency work and must meet 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements.

Recent grants include a $132,518 Capital Fund award (April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030), a Public Housing Operating Fund award (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032), and a prior Capital Fund award (May 13, 2025 through May 12, 2029). Combined obligated dollars across all forty awards total $3.3 million, reflecting the modest scale typical of small rural housing authorities. Activity has been consistent at two awards annually for the past five years. Two awards face completion within the next twenty-four months and will require renewal. As a government entity rather than a vendor, Moundridge is not positioned to compete for federal contracts or participate in teaming relationships with private federal contractors.
