Regional Housing Authority Of Lawrence, Cullman And Morgan Counties

Regional Housing Authority Of Lawrence, Cullman And Morgan Counties, doing business as Regional Housing Authority, is a U.S. local government entity and county housing authority based in Hartselle, Alabama that receives federal grants from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office to fund public housing capital improvements and operating expenses across its three-county service area in Alabama. The Authority operates as a prime recipient of formula grants only; it does not hold federal contracts or serve as a subcontractor.

Regional Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD grants under two primary programs. The Authority receives periodic awards under the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which funds public housing modernization, infrastructure improvements, unit development and acquisition, and emergency repairs to public housing stock. Most recent capital fund awards include a $537,107 grant awarded April 1, 2026, running through March 31, 2030, and a prior award dated May 6, 2024, with ultimate completion in May 2028. Under the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.850), the Authority receives operating subsidies to cover day-to-day maintenance, property management, anti-crime and security initiatives, energy costs, resident supportive services, insurance, debt service, and administrative expenses. A $251,542 Operating Fund award dated January 1, 2026, extends through December 31, 2032. All capital and operating work must comply with 24 CFR Part 905 and the Uniform Administrative Requirements under 2 CFR 200, with funds allocated only to eligible activities outlined in the Authority's approved five-year action plan or HUD-approved emergency or disaster-related work.

The Authority's customer concentration is absolute — all forty awards in the source data come from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office, representing $16.4 million in combined obligation across its full award history from 2006 forward. Activity has remained flat at approximately two awards per year across the past five years. Two awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months and face recompete in that window. Regional Housing Authority does not operate as a subcontractor or hold positions on federal contract vehicles such as GWACs, IDIQs, or BPAs.
