Osceola Housing Authority

Osceola Housing Authority, doing business as Third Ave Apartment, is a non-profit public housing authority operating as a federal grant recipient under the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office. The organization receives formula grants to administer public housing operations, modernization, and capital improvements across its portfolio.

Osceola Housing Authority is a pure grant recipient with no federal prime contract awards or subcontract positions. All 35 awards in the source data are federal grants from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, placing the vendor entirely within HUD's public housing subsidy framework rather than the federal procurement market. The organization operates exclusively under two recurring grant programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (PH OPFUND) and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFP). The Operating Fund grants support day-to-day operational expenses including management, routine and preventative maintenance, security, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, and administrative implementation costs. The Capital Fund grants fund public housing modernization, development, management improvements, and other eligible activities under 24 CFR Part 905, including construction and acquisition of additional public housing units.

Representative grants include a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion March 12, 2029; a Public Housing Operating Fund award dated January 1, 2026, running through December 31, 2032; and a Public Housing Capital Fund award dated May 6, 2024, expiring May 5, 2028. The organization's customer concentration is singular — HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office accounts for 100% of awards across the entire portfolio. Combined dollars obligated across all 35 awards total approximately $1.2 million, reflecting the formula-grant structure in which public housing authorities receive annual allocations based on statutory need calculations rather than competitive procurement.

Activity is consistent at two awards per year across 2022 through 2026. Three awards reach ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing renewal cycles typical of HUD's operating and capital fund annual reallocation process. Osceola Housing Authority operates as a direct HUD grant recipient managing public housing stock and does not engage federal contractors or subcontractors through its federal funding relationships.
