Newkirk Housing Authority

Newkirk Housing Authority, a U.S. local government entity based in Newkirk, Oklahoma, is a Public Housing Agency that receives formula grant awards from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing capital improvements and operating expenses for low-income residents. The authority operates exclusively as a grant recipient, not as a federal contractor or subcontractor.

Newkirk Housing Authority's federal funding centers on two HUD programs under CFDA 14.872 (Public Housing Capital Fund) and the Public Housing Operating Fund. The Capital Fund awards support public housing modernization, development, acquisition of additional units, construction activities, infrastructure improvements, emergency repairs, and energy efficiency upgrades under the eligible activities described in 24 CFR Part 905. Recent Capital Fund awards include a formula grant of $123,193 effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, and prior awards dating back to May 2022. The Operating Fund awards provide operating subsidies to cover day-to-day operational expenses, routine and preventative maintenance, anti-crime and anti-drug activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and debt service associated with the authority's public housing inventory. The authority received an Operating Fund award effective January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032. All expenditures must comply with federal administrative requirements in 2 CFR 200 and be supported by detailed budgets and cost records for HUD review and audit.

The authority's award footprint reflects the structure of the Public Housing program itself: 100% of the forty awards in the source data come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with no subcontracting activity. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $2.9 million. The award cycle is consistent, with two new awards per year since 2022, and two awards reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The authority's role is as formula-grant recipient administering federal capital and operating funds to maintain and improve its public housing portfolio in service to low-income households, with no federal contracting or vendor relationship to prime or sub contractors.
