Ozark Housing Authority

Ozark Housing Authority, a local government housing authority based in Ozark, Alabama, is a federal grant recipient operating exclusively under HUD's Public Housing formula grant programs (CFDA 14.850 and 14.872) with no contract vehicles or commercial services footprint. The organization receives formula-based allocations from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund capital improvements, modernization, operational expenses, and management activities for its public housing inventory serving low-income residents.

Ozark Housing Authority's federal award activity spans exclusively HUD Public Housing funding. The organization holds 76 formula grants under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), which supports day-to-day operational and maintenance expenses including property management, routine and preventive maintenance, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative program implementation. The authority also holds Public Housing Capital Fund grants (CFDA 14.872) supporting capital and management activities including modernization, development, infrastructure improvements, and emergency repairs. Recent awards include a $1,407,673 Public Housing Capital Fund grant running April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2030, and recurring Public Housing Operating Fund allocations of approximately $388,715 to $418,715 annually (January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2032). A single award from HUD's Assistant Secretary for Policy Development and Research rounds out the portfolio. All 77 awards in the source data are prime grants; the authority holds no subcontract or vendor relationships in the federal contracting space. Combined dollars obligated across all awards total $45.6 million.

Activity has remained stable at three to four awards per year over the past five years, with four awards facing ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The authority operates without federal contract vehicles, IDIQs, or commercial service delivery relationships; its federal footprint is purely grant-recipient participation in HUD's formula-driven Public Housing program serving approximately 2,770 public housing agencies nationwide. No competitive procurement opportunity exists within Ozark Housing Authority's operations — it receives allocations from HUD based on standardized formulas reflecting inventory characteristics such as unit counts, building age, and construction costs rather than through competitive application or contract award processes.
