Newton Housing Authority Inc.

Newton Housing Authority Inc., a U.S. government entity and local housing authority based in Newton, New Jersey, is a recipient of federal formula grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, not a federal contractor or service provider. The Authority operates exclusively as a prime recipient under HUD's Public Housing programs; it does not compete for federal contracts, sit on IDIQs or GWACs, or function as a subcontractor.

Newton Housing Authority's federal grant portfolio consists entirely of formula-based allocations from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, with 40 awards totaling $5.1 million in combined obligated dollars across a twenty-year span. The Authority receives funding under two recurring HUD programs: the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which supports capital improvements, modernization, infrastructure upgrades, emergency repairs, and development of public housing units; and the Public Housing Operating Fund, which funds day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses, management costs, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident support services, and administrative implementation. Recent awards include a Public Housing Capital Fund grant of $151,913 effective April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, a Public Housing Operating Fund award effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032, and prior-year Capital Fund grants awarded May 13, 2025 and May 6, 2024. All activities comply with 24 CFR 905.200 and the Uniform Administrative Requirements under 2 CFR 200.

The Authority's customer concentration is singular—100% of its federal funding flows from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office, reflecting its status as a designated public housing authority operating under the Housing Act of 1937. Activity is flat at two awards per year across the past five years (2022–2026). Four awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, triggering routine formula-grant renewal cycles rather than competitive recompete events. As a municipal housing authority, Newton Housing Authority does not pursue federal contracts, does not subcontract to other vendors, and does not operate as a teaming partner in commercial federal procurement.
