New Haven Housing Commision

New Haven Housing Commission is a non-profit public housing authority based in New Haven, Michigan, that receives formula grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing stock serving low-income residents, elderly individuals, and families with children. As the recipient entity (100% of awards), the Commission does not subcontract or partner with other vendors on its federal grants; it acts as a prime recipient across all HUD funding.

The Commission's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants spanning two core programs. Under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), the Commission receives recurring annual operating subsidies to cover day-to-day expenses including property management, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and administrative program implementation. Under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), the Commission receives formula-allocated capital grants to fund modernization, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, energy efficiency upgrades, and development of public housing units. Recent awards include a $140,595 Operating Fund grant effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, a $214,134 Capital Fund grant effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and prior-year Capital Fund allocations spanning 2022 through 2025 with ultimate completion dates extending through May 2029. The Commission has received 35 total awards since 2006, with two awards annually in recent years (2022–2026), generating $7.5 million in combined obligated dollars across the portfolio.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of awards. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing a modest recompete window for the Commission's ongoing allocations under both operating and capital programs. The Commission's work is performance-based around public housing stewardship rather than competitive procurement; as a formula-funded entity serving a defined geographic portfolio in Michigan, it does not compete for task orders or engage in vendor teaming arrangements typical of federal contractors.
