Seagraves Housing Authority

Seagraves Housing Authority is a U.S. local government entity and public housing authority based in Seagraves, Texas, that receives federal grant funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to administer public housing operations and capital improvements. The organization operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient — not a federal contractor — drawing 100% of its recent federal awards from HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office under formula-based grant programs.

Seagraves Housing Authority's federal footprint consists entirely of HUD formula grants supporting public housing in the Seagraves area. The authority receives recurring awards under two primary HUD programs: the Public Housing Operating Fund (CFDA 14.889), which provides subsidies for day-to-day operational expenses including management, maintenance, anti-crime and security activities, energy costs, resident supportive services, and insurance; and the Public Housing Capital Fund (CFDA 14.872), which funds capital modernization, infrastructure improvements, development of public housing units, emergency repairs, and financing activities. Grant awards allocate funding based on each housing authority's inventory characteristics — unit counts, building age, and construction costs — rather than through competitive application processes. Recent grants include a $176,188 Public Housing Capital Fund award effective April 1, 2026, through March 31, 2030, a Public Housing Operating Fund award running January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2032, a Public Housing Capital Fund award awarded May 13, 2025, with ultimate completion May 12, 2029, and a Public Housing Capital Fund award awarded May 6, 2024, with ultimate completion May 5, 2028. All eligible capital and operating uses must comply with 24 CFR 905.200 and either be specified in an approved five-year action plan or approved by HUD for emergency work.

The authority's award activity is steady and consistent: two awards per year across 2022 through 2026, with a combined obligated total of $4.5 million across forty awards since 2006. HUD's Public and Indian Housing Office is the sole customer agency across the entire recent portfolio. Two awards face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months, triggering formula grant renewal cycles. Seagraves Housing Authority does not engage federal contractors as subrecipients and does not itself subcontract federal work.
