Ontonagon Village Housing Commission

Ontonagon Village Housing Commission, doing business as Village Housing, is a U.S. government entity and public housing authority based in Ontonagon, Michigan, that receives formula grant funding from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to operate and maintain public housing units serving low-income residents. Village Housing operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient (100% of recent awards); it does not hold federal contracts or serve as a subcontractor.

Village Housing's federal grant footprint is concentrated entirely within HUD's Public Housing programs under two formula grant vehicles. The Commission has received ten documented awards across the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872) and Public Housing Operating Fund programs since 2022. These grants support capital modernization, infrastructure improvements, unit acquisition and development, routine maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, and resident services for its public housing inventory. Representative recent awards include a $143,827 Public Housing Capital Fund grant awarded April 1, 2026, with ultimate completion March 31, 2030, and a Public Housing Operating Fund grant awarded January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2032. Earlier tranches under both programs span from 2022 through 2025, with awards typically issued on annual or multi-year cycles. The Commission's combined dollars obligated across all documented awards total $4.1 million over the source data period, reflecting Village Housing's small-scale footprint within HUD's nationwide public housing system of approximately 2,770 PHAs managing nearly one million units.

Customer concentration is absolute — the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of the 41 awards in the source data. Activity is steady and recurring at two awards per year from 2022 through 2026, consistent with the formula-grant allocation cycle. Four awards hold ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, creating a predictable recompete window aligned with HUD's standard Public Housing Capital Fund and Operating Fund renewal schedules. Village Housing's grant work is constrained by formula allocation and compliance with 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements and 24 CFR Part 905 eligible-activities regulations, rather than competitive procurement — awards are calculated based on inventory characteristics and performance metrics rather than solicitation responses.
